Abstract: | Trust within a secular or organizational context is much like the concept of faith within a religious framework. The purpose
of this article is to identify parallels between trust and faith, particularly from the individual perspective of the person
who perceives a duty owed to him or her. Betrayal is often a subjectively derived construct based upon each individual’s subjective
mediating lens. We analyze the nature of trust and betrayal and offer insights that a wise believer might use in understanding
his or her relationship with the divine. We suggest that the parallels between trust and faith involve a willingness to relinquish
one’s power or control in the expectant hope that our needs will be met. Betrayal, however, is often profoundly misunderstood. |
