Does the Bible contain simple principles to ensure your life never collapses under the strains of everyday life? Author and pastor Casey Sabella has served in pastoral ministry for over forty years, knowing fellow believers' heartache who start strong but end poorly. Casey has condensed the principles of Hebrews 6:1,2 into a guide that will help you understand and become grounded in the same faith possessed by first-century believers. You'll discover why so many mistake mental assent for genuine repentance. What does it mean to have faith in God? Most confuse faith with hope and become disappointed. Is water baptism essential to salvation? What about infant baptism? Is it valid? Does belonging to a church matter, or can we serve God without joining a local gathering of believers? What is the baptism with the Holy Spirit? Are all Christians baptized with the Holy Spirit? Is speaking with tongues for today? What about physical healing? Why is laying on of hands a foundation stone? Is there a real hell? What about the resurrection? These are many of the questions Casey asks and answers while inviting you to investigate these truths yourself. Drawing from over four decades in pastoral ministry, Casey will help you take crucial steps towards lifelong spiritual transformation. Building on the foundation laid out for us in scripture, you will be empowered to meet any challenge life throws your way. Foundations is designed for individuals or groups who want to get serious about their relationship with God. Each chapter is followed by practical questions to increase understanding and use individually or in a small group study. God destines every Christ-follower to become a spiritual powerhouse and resource to others. If you're tired of a life governed by circumstances, I can help you experience lasting change.
