Rooted in Christ — Growing Deep Faith in a Shallow World

A vibrant seedling pushes through dry, cracked soil, bathed in sunlight—a reminder that faith rooted in Christ can thrive even in the harshest conditions.

Rooted in Christ

Have you noticed how easy it is to get swept away by distractions and shifting values? To withstand the storms of life, our faith must grow deep roots in Christ.

Surface-level faith can’t endure life’s pressures. Colossians 2:7 says: “Let your roots grow down into him, and let your lives be built on him. Then your faith will grow strong in the truth you were taught, and you will overflow with thankfulness.”

When we remain rooted in Christ through prayer, Scripture, and community, we develop resilience. Like a tree with deep roots, we can stand tall in trials and continue bearing fruit, even in dry seasons.

Propelling Point:

Deep roots in Christ produce strong faith that withstands every storm.
