This is the 6th Chapel message at Cross Creek Christian School that focuses on some aspect of the Gospel. Today’s message considers some things that are often called “faith, ” but are not really saving faith. A few illustrations are offered to help clarify what it means to truly trust Christ for our salvation.

Stay in the Battle!
