The Ten Dimensions of Faith Faith is what we believe. It is the relationship we have with God through Jesus because of Jesus’ death‚ Crucifixion and Resurrection.

stationed at my desk during my 10th grade English class where I wish I would have spoken up. As a class‚ we began a discussion about whether or not it was worth dying for religious faith.
