Have you been a Christian many years and feel sometimes that your Christian life has become rather weary and lack-lustre? Maybe you have only recently become a Christian, and are constantly asking: ‘Now what should I be aiming at’? Or perhaps you are not a Christian at all? If any of these describe you, then this slim book on the nature of faith in the Christian life will be an inspiration.
Portraits of Faith brings to a wider audience the four addresses that Joel Beeke delivered at the Aberwystwyth Conference in 2003. Choosing lesser known biblical characters, Beeke illustrates four different aspects of faith and encourages the reader to question whether we have this faith, and, if we do, whether we are exercising it, and maturing as Christians.
