In our day, faith is often seen as the antithesis of reason. But when we look at what it truly means to have faith, we see that this could not be further from the truth. In this message, Dr. R.C. Sproul addresses the false conflict between faith and reason, showing us what faith really is—and what it isn’t.

This message is from Dr. Sproul’s 6-part teaching series Basic Training. Learn more: www.ligonier.org/learn/series/basic-training

    Hard pressed to find another preacher as well-grounded, insightful and eloquent as Sproul. His command of the English language is simply astounding.

    I had never heard of RC Sproul until several years after he was gone. I’m so grateful for his video and audio teachings. They have greatly impacted my life. His faithfulness will continue change lives until Jesus returns!!!

    Whenever I think I've seen all the videos of our beloved Dr. Sproul, here comes another gem that I haven't seen that edifies me and puts a smile on my face. Thank you Lord, for gracing us with this man.

    A refreshing drink of RC Sproula. Doctrinal clarity and understanding of God’s truth. God grants true repentance through the clarion call to repentance by His grace, grants us the gift of grace through faith, grants us a faith to believe. A genuine saving faith. Beyond man’s deceptive philosophy. Imputed righteousness and justification and sanctification on to glorification. The Nicene Creed is our affirmation of belief.

    Such a good teacher. So glad the teachings were recorded for coming generations. Wish I could have met him. Even for a round of golf!

    Faith is a deeper version of hope. You don't hope for something to be or to happen unless it's unlikely to be or happen. Faith is the same way, faith wouldn't be required if it's a sure thing or self evident.

    I had thought and questions about these topics to myself wondering if and sometimes praying for such answers only to find out that someone like RC Sproul had answered them many years before. When the modern world tries to discredit people of ages past, just shows the wisdom people like RC Sproul had. I pray for more people like him~
