The key to living boldly in the world starts with being hidden away. But what does that mean? When we look at the life of Elijah, it reveals the surprising power of a “concealed life” with God. But a hidden faith that never shows up in real life? That’s only half the story. Watch this sermon from Rev. Andrew Smith as he challenges us to live fully rooted lives that move from quiet trust to courageous action.
