Trust falls are the stuff of childhood games and corporate team-building exercises. You learn something about who you can trust leaning back and allowing yourself to fall. The result will either be a hard landing on the floor or someone’s supportive arms catching you. No doubt this exercise teaches you which humans have your back. But how can you learn about the trustworthiness of God? Try “trust-falling” into one of Faith Comes By Hearing’s Audio Bibles at Bible.is.
