Most Christians have beliefs about God. Far fewer actually believe God. JD Walt draws a sharp, unforgettable line between the two, and it changes everything about what faith, righteousness, and salvation really mean. Using Romans 4 and Abraham's story, JD shows why righteousness is not earned through striving, rule-keeping, or self-reliance, and why the gospel reveals something far deeper: a righteousness received by grace through faith.
He unpacks what it means to move from mental assent to active trust, from "accepting" ideas about God to staking your whole life on God himself.

How the Spirit Turns Ruins into Foundations.
The big issue isn’t whether we are helping people in need; it’s whether our hearts are truly open to those we are helping.
We plant the seed and we harvest the crop, but the journey from seed to seeds is the work and will of God.
