About this listen

Many, but not all of the heroes of the Faith, are named in Hebrews chapter eleven. Sixteen saints were specifically named in the first thirty-two verses of that chapter. But many others were implied indirectly in the last eight verses of that chapter. Hebrews 11:32-40 says, "And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell…of the prophets: Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens. Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance…And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise: God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect."

So chapter one of this text will identify how those people became heroes of the Faith and how anyone can be a hero of the Faith. After that, two stories will be shared about Abel. One will be about Enoch. Six will be about Noah. Ten will be about Abraham. One each will be about Sarah, Isaac, and Jacob. Five will be about Moses. One each will be about Joshua and Rahab. Two will be about Gideon. One will be about Barak. Two will be about Samson. One each will be about Jephthah and Samuel. Four will be about David. One will be about Solomon. Three will be about Elijah. One each will be about Elisha and the three Hebrew boys in the fiery furnace. Two will be about Daniel. One will be about Jonah. After that, a brief word of those saints indirectly referenced by the last eight verses of the chapter will be given.

In all, this text will share fifty stories about the heroes of the Faith. Then the final chapter will share some closing thoughts. One, in particular, is that a lot of theological truth can be seen through the lives of many of the heroes of the Faith. The purpose for a text like this one is not just to tell a few Bible stories. Instead it is to show how anyone can become a hero of the Faith. Everything begins by seeking the Lord with all of one's heart, committing oneself to Him, trusting in Him, and then entering into a personal relationship with Him. But it does not end there. So at the end of each story will be a "Life Application" that shows how a saved person can grow in the Lord and actually become a hero of the Faith. The Lord is longsuffering because He does not want anyone to leave this existence not saved. But after that, He is looking for some saints who want to be His heroes in this life.

Now there is one final note to be made about the organization of this text before concluding this Introduction. Something that the reader might find useful is boxes throughout that show the different passages that are being referenced at the times and in the places where they are being referenced. That way, he or she will not have to jump all over the place or get into or out of the scriptures to locate a particular reference. Hopefully that inclusion will help the reader in trying to understand the various events and to also quickly put them into their right context. So it is hoped that that addition will make this text easier to read and that the Lord will receive the praise, honor, and glory that He rightfully deserves.
