Xtreme Faith Xtreme God

Background

This song was written by Bob Hauch for the students of St. John’s Lutheran School. Although it was never a school year theme, it was still a song Bob used in his classroom, in chapel services, and in Sunday worship. As one of the last songs he composed, in the midst of his struggle with cancer, he was living the faithfulness and perseverance the song refers to.

This song provided the title of Bob Hauch’s memorial service as well. Bob had requested that Romans 5:1-8 be used for that service. Romans 5:1-4 describes the “xtreme faith” that finds joy even in suffering. Romans 5:5-8 describes the love of our “xtreme God” who loved us while we were yet sinners.

We are called to walk in “xtreme faith” in the challenges we face in life. But we are strengthened by our “xtreme God” who finds a ways for us and walk alongside us. Confident of His love for us, we can live “xtreme” lives of faithfulness.

For the recording, the song is sung by William Francis, a graduate of St. John’s Lutheran School.  For additional school theme songs, click here.
