So often, as American Christians, we understand faith to mean intellectual belief alone.
But what if a biblical understanding of faith was broader and deeper than mere cognitive belief? What if it called us into radical commitment to Jesus?

The Greek word translated “faith” in our Bibles is pistis—and when you examine how this word is used in Jesus’ day, both in religious and secular settings, you find that faith carries with it the idea of Allegiance. This changes so many things about how we understand “living out our faith” in our cultural moment.
