SUMMARY
Your faith is a long-distance run, Pastor John Van Pay tells us: an everyday endeavor to follow Jesus that will sometimes feel impossible, even painful. Faith is not always a comfort; it is often demanding. Living your faith means never giving up, but always surrendering - surrendering to Jesus Christ and the great purpose of God.
​
To give us strength, Van Pay retells the inspirational stories of 20 believers in the Bible who persisted, endured, and thrived in their faith by applying the fundamental principles of endurance running to the single most important journey - the journey to loving and following God.
