Equipped 2026: "Following in the Footsteps of Our Father of Faith" by Jet Warren

Abraham isn't just a biblical patriarch—he's the blueprint for every believer's spiritual journey. In this powerful sermon, Jet Warren argues that calling Abraham 'the father of our faith' isn't about lineage, but about living a life defined by three radical footprints: trust, pilgrimage, and sacrifice. The sermon challenges modern Christians to stop building permanent monuments to themselves and instead live as temporary residents—tent-dwellers in a world not their own. Abraham’s faith wasn’t rooted in certainty, but in obedience to a voice he couldn’t fully understand. He left without a map, lived in a promised land as a foreigner, and was willing to sacrifice his son Isaac, not because he had answers, but because he trusted God could raise the dead. This isn't a call to perfection, but to posture: are we living as pilgrims seeking a heavenly city, or foundation people clinging to a passing world? The invitation is clear: start walking by faith, not sight, and begin your journey as a pilgrim in baptism.
