Etymology
'faith-centered' originates from the combination of 'faith' and 'centered', where 'faith' refers to a strong belief or trust, often in a religious context, and 'centered' means focused or concentrated.
'faith' comes from Old French 'feid', which in turn comes from Latin 'fides', meaning 'trust, belief'. 'Centered' is derived from the word 'center', which has roots in the Greek 'kentron', meaning 'sharp point, center'.
Initially, 'faith' meant 'trust or belief', and 'centered' meant 'focused'. Together, they have evolved to mean 'focused on faith'.
