Introduction

Is faith just belief, is it allegiance, is it something else? Dr. Teresa Morgan, who holds the McDonald Agape Professorship in New Testament and Early Christianity at Yale University, joins Aaron to take a deep dive into what pistis and fides (the Greek and Latin for faith or trust) meant for those who used those words within the first century. Most importantly, Dr. Morgan and Aaron talk about why Christians today need to understand these terms within their contexts. Spoiler: faith is more than belief and when we understand faith properly, Christians can be free to be in relationship with Christ and also question what they believe.
