You believe in Jesus. You know the Bible stories. Maybe you can point back to the moment you first gave our life to Christ. But when was the last time your faith actually moved you?

In "Pick Up the Hammer," Pastor Jason Barnett closes the Faith in Work Boots series from James 2:20-26, where James points to Abraham and Rahab as examples of a faith that didn't stay safely on the shelf. Their trust in God became visible through obedience.

This isn't a message about doing more church stuff, earning God's love, or proving you're a good Christian. It's about the uncomfortable gap between saying, "I believe" and actually following Jesus when He asks us to move.

If your Christian faith has become routine, if most of your stories about God happened years ago, or if you've been waiting for somebody else to do what God may be asking of you, this message is for you.

What is the next thing Jesus is asking you to do? You don't have to do everything. You just have to trust Jesus enough to take the next step.

Living faith leaves footprints, and you cannot leave footprints until you move.
