As most of you know, we’ve recently changed our name to “InFaith,” and I went and got a bunch of clothes embroidered with our new logo and name. Recently, I was flying home, and I was wearing a dress shirt with the logo and the name, “InFaith,” very tastefully done on it.

As I checked into the United Club front desk, the woman said, “InFaith, huh? That’s what I base my life on. We all need to stand by our faith.” I began to engage in a conversation with her and found out that she’s a wonderful sister and loves the fact that our name speaks about our faith.

But it wasn’t over. As I got on the airplane and settled into my seat, the person next to me said, “What is that?” and pointed to the name on my shirt.

I said, “Well, we’re a network of people who work together to accomplish what God has called us to do in this country. We do it by faith, and that’s why we call ourselves ‘InFaith.’”

He scratched his head and said, “You know, I used to have faith.” Then he began to give me a sordid tale about all the bad things that have happened to him, including his wife dying and a child being killed. He continued to ask, “Why should I have faith in a God who treats me so poorly?”

I began to explain to him the love of God, the fall of man, and the reason we need a Savior. He didn’t pray to receive Christ, but he did understand what faith was.

I love our new name! I recognize that there are people who have difficulty with that change, and I certainly value that opinion, but I also am excited that at least on that day, our name gave me a couple of great opportunities to share my faith.
