Bible verses about faith.
Scripture describes faith through hope, hearing, and a life of trust. Hebrews 11 opens a chapter of stories about people who continued without seeing every outcome. In Mark 9, a father brings both belief and uncertainty to Jesus. Together, these passages offer language for a faith that can be expressed honestly, even while questions remain.

Stay with a word.
The father’s prayer in Mark holds belief and a request for help in the same sentence. How does that sit alongside the other passages? You might return to one verse and notice what it says about the relationship between trust, hope, and what remains unseen.
