Faith isn’t about feelings. Too many believers give up because they don’t feel close to God, thinking their faith is gone. But the Bible is clear: faith is a decision, not an emotion.
In this episode of March or Die, Jeremy Stalnecker and Sean Kennard break down the reality that faith is built on trust, obedience, and discipline not fleeting emotions. Drawing from Hebrews 11, they explore how biblical heroes like Abraham, Moses, and Noah lived by faith even when emotions weren’t on their side.
Whether you’re in a spiritual “dry season,” wrestling with doubt, or feeling far from God, this conversation will help you take the next step forward.
