What Faith Looks Like: 30 True Stories of Quiet Strength, Redemption, and the God Who Never Left

By Rolando Asisten, Jr.

Some faith shouts from the stage. This faith whispers in the silence.

What does faith look like when there’s no applause? When the healing doesn’t come? When the miracle looks more like perseverance than power?

What Faith Looks Like is a collection of 30 true stories that speak to the tired, the unseen, and the brave souls who keep going when no one is watching.

Inside, you’ll meet:

A teacher who was choked in her classroom—but returned the next day to serve.

A man with a terminal illness who stayed alive just long enough to keep a promise.

A janitor with a master’s degree, solving equations no one saw him study.

A caregiver who sacrificed love, marriage, and her own dreams to lift her family.

A group of retired math teachers who built a digital scholarship mission during the pandemic.

These are not stories of fame or perfection. They are stories of ordinary people who chose love over comfort, presence over praise, and faith over fear.

Each story ends with a Scripture and Reflection—inviting readers to pause, breathe, and find their place in the larger story God is writing.

Why 30 stories?

Because some days you just need one more reason to keep going.

Whether you're a teacher, caregiver, immigrant, parent, student, or someone walking through a silent storm—this book is for you. For the ones who rise before the sun. Who serve without applause. Who believe even when there’s no proof but love.
