The Invitation of Faith

In this message from the True Story Christmas series, Pastor Trey Hildebrant explores the invitation of faith through the life of John the Baptist, the one chosen by God to prepare the way for Jesus. Before the manger, before the ministry of Christ, God was already at work through faithful obedience, quiet waiting, and a willingness to trust His promises.

The story of John the Baptist reminds us that faith is not about visibility or recognition but about saying yes to God’s purpose even when the full picture is still unfolding. Through Luke 1, we see how God works behind the scenes, using faith filled obedience to accomplish His redemptive plan.

This message challenges us to consider how God may be inviting us to trust Him more deeply, to believe His promises, and to live faithfully as part of His greater story this Christmas season.
