Are you searching for something more—hope, direction, or a deeper sense of purpose? We invite you to try faith with us at Faith Methodist Church. Whether you’re new to church, returning after time away, or seeking a new church home, this is the perfect opportunity to explore what faith looks like in everyday life. During a recent six-week sermon series, Try Faith, we walked through powerful biblical stories that showed how faith moves us to trust, follow, wait, stand firm, and begin again. Join us at 4600 FM 359 Rd, Richmond, TX 77406, and discover what happens when you take that first step.

You’re invited to worship with us each week—on Thursdays at 6:00 PM for our acoustic service or Sundays at 9:00 AM for our traditional service and 11:00 AM for our contemporary service. Come as you are and experience inspiring music, practical teaching, and a community that’s ready to walk with you and as you try faith.

Beyond worship, there’s something for everyone at Faith. We offer discipleship classes for adults, youth, and kids that help deepen your faith and connect you with others on the journey. Whether you’re seeking answers, meaningful friendships, or ways to grow spiritually, our discipleship opportunities are designed to meet you right where you are.

Sermon Series

Week 1: The First Step

Scripture: Hebrews 11:1, 8-9

Faith often begins before we have all the answers. In this opening message, we explore how Abraham trusted God enough to take the first step into the unknown. Like Abraham, we’re invited to begin our faith journey with simple obedience—trusting God even when the destination isn’t clear. You don’t need to see the full picture to follow where God leads.

Week 2: Faith That Follows

Scripture: Matthew 4:18-22

True faith doesn’t stay still—it follows. This week, we look at the moment Jesus called His first disciples, who immediately left their nets to follow Him. Their response reminds us that real faith often requires letting go of what’s familiar. When we follow Jesus, we may have to leave something behind—but what we gain is far greater.

Week 3: When Faith Feels Risky

Scripture: Matthew 14:22-33

Sometimes faith means stepping into the unknown, just like Peter did when he walked on water. This week, we explore how fear can overwhelm us when we focus on the waves instead of Jesus. Faith may feel risky, but when we keep our eyes on Christ, we discover He is already there, reaching out with strength and peace.

Week 4: Faith Under Pressure

Scripture: Daniel 3:16-28

Faith doesn’t guarantee that we’ll avoid hardship—but it does promise that we won’t face it alone. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego stood firm in the face of a fiery trial, confident that God could save them—but committed to Him even if He didn’t. This message challenges us to remain faithful in the pressure-filled areas of our own lives.

Week 5: Faith That Waits

Scripture: Romans 4:18-21

Waiting is one of the hardest parts of faith. This week, we reflect on Abraham’s long wait for God’s promise and how he continued to believe even when it seemed impossible. Faith means trusting God’s timing, even when we’re tempted to take control. Waiting doesn’t mean nothing is happening—God is always at work.

Week 6: Try Faith Again

Scripture: John 21:15-19

Even when we fail, God doesn’t give up on us. In the final week of the series, we look at Peter’s restoration after denying Jesus. Jesus meets Peter with grace and reaffirms his calling, reminding us that failure isn’t the end of our story. No matter where you’ve been, God invites you to get back up—and try faith again.
