On this episode of the World Game-Changers podcast, Paul and Rebecca are joined by Dr Art McCoy and Crystal J. Swanigan to explore the topic of foundational faith in the context of Blessed Beyond Belief, and how important faith is in all its various guises and what it really means.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Faith is beyond a dream, it’s greater than a dream. F.A.I.T.H. – Forward All Issues To Heaven or Forget All Impossible Truths and Trust in Him. My higher power is God, I lean on him for all things, I dream big. Faith is dreaming big and stepping out on the ledge without a net underneath to catch you, just know that the direction that you’re going has been pointed and directed by your faith. 
• “Trust without evidence” can be universal or religious. Faith is a corporate thing, there’s a community of like-minded people that have a similar creed. In America we’re focused on ourselves with regard to faith. But in the beginning of a belief or a religion, there’s a creed – a perception of truth – that transcends the current reality and reasoning. That’s very important as a leader because it lets me know how many people have faith in a vision, faith in a future, faith in a community, and faith in an outcome that we can create something out of nothing.
• It is possible to have a level of faith that is individual, but that faith is miniscule in comparison to a corporate faith. In all texts, including sacred texts, the community of faith is what gives you your strength. This oneness with this element that is bigger than you that taps into an unmediated truth. People call it God, people call it Universe, but in the end it’s the communal aspect that makes you have divine power. 
•  Intentional is a plan, an aim, a goal, a target, it’s predestined, pre-thought-out, intended to be, expected as a result, it has a purpose. My pain becomes my purpose, my misery becomes my message, those are the things that were intended to come my way so I could become the advocate for the product/topic. Pain was inflicted to provoke me to bring more light. We don’t really get involved in things until it knocks on our door.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Things work together for my good. It may not all be or taste good, but it’s all working together for my good.’

‘Faith is the substance that things hoped for, and the evidence of things not seen.’

‘Faith gives you the power to transcend reason and reality in a way that makes something better than it was before.’

‘No man is an island, we stand together. People need me to make their lives more fulfilled and I need people to make my life more fulfilled.’
