Everyone knows that faith is central to the Christian life. But what is ‘faith’? What makes it so important? What are we meant to have faith in, and what difference should our faith make to everyday life?

In six short chapters, Bryson Smith takes us on a climb—a climb to look out at the magnificent wisdom of God and understand faith in all its glory. In the course of this journey, we start to grasp what a life of faith looks like and why faith is more precious than gold.
