Great People of Faith - Abraham Was Daring Hebrews 11:8-12 Faith is the basis of our relationship with God. We learn the nature of faith by reading about the "Great People of Faith" in the Bible. Abraham was a man of great faith to the point that he was willing to do "daring" things because of his faith in God. Abraham ended up in the "Hall of Fame of Faith" in Hebrews 11 because every time God told him to do something, he did it.
