The Contagious Faith of Caleb

Sunday, June 21, 2026 What if the kind of faith we live out doesn't just shape our own lives—but quietly spreads to everyone watching us? In this message, we step into the story of Caleb, a man who didn't just believe God's promises—he boldly acted on them. We see what it looks like to say, "Give me this mountain," and actually follow through. But the focus shifts from courageous faith to something even more powerful: contagious faith—the kind that influences others simply because it's real, visible, and lived out. As we walk through Caleb's example, we begin to ask ourselves some honest questions. Are we leading by example, or just by words? Because the truth is, people—especially our families—learn more from what we do than what we say. We watch how Caleb's faith inspired those around him, from the next generation of leaders to his own daughter, who mirrored his bold trust in God. It becomes clear that authentic faith doesn't stay contained—it spreads through everyday actions, decisions, and habits. Whether you realize it or not, when you lead by example, you are directly discipling the people around you. Ultimately, we are called to invest deeply in the next generation by providing them with both "upper springs" and "lower springs." While you might excel at providing the "lower springs" of material, physical, and emotional support, we cannot afford to neglect the "upper springs" of actively pouring the spiritual truth of God's Word into their lives. Are you living out a faith that your children can truly see and emulate? We will unpack what it means to be a tangible, godly example, and learn how we can reflect our Heavenly Father by leaving a lasting legacy of vibrant, contagious faith. When we get that balance right, we reflect the heart of a Father who provides for both our physical needs and our eternal future. Connect with Us: https://i.visitnorthstarchurch.org/fo...
