This paper begins with the oft-repeated claim that having (religious) faith involves trust in God. Taking this platitude seriously requires at least two philosophical tasks. First, one must address the relevant notion of "trust" guiding the platitude. I offer a sketch of epistemic trust: arguing that epistemic trust involves several components: acceptance, communication, dependence, and confidence. The first duo concerns the epistemic element of epistemic trust and the second part delimit the fiducial aspect to epistemic trust. Second, one must also examine what differentiates faith qua trust. I argue that we should not distinguish faith from trust merely by believing religious propositions but by the attitudes they express. In particular, the attitude of faith is more deeply entrenched and central to one's noetic structure than trust simpliciter. The paper ends by arguing that the account proposed insofar as it accommodates and explains certain "faith desiderata". We can thus give content to the "faith is a kind of trust" platitude with a model of trust on hand while showing how that model confirms and explains important features of faith.
