Tony Espinosa is a researcher in church history & theology with a focus on the Anglican & Reformed traditions. Espinosa studied at Fuller Theological Seminary in Pasadena, California, as well as the University of California, Irvine, and California State University, Fullerton, where he focused on early American religious history. His current research interests include the nature of faith, the relation of the Holy Spirit to the humanity of Jesus, and the meaning of eternal life.
For many people, faith is easily defined as belief in someone or something, but that basic understanding invites some deeper questions. Where does faith come from? How can we experience it? What is its goal? Why do we need it at all? The Bible offers a most intriguing perspective, saying that “faith is the substantiation of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.” In this seminar we will consider this biblical view of faith, paying particular attention to how “things hoped for” and “unseen” can be substantiated, or made real, in human experience.
