Faith is looking at an empty house and believing somebody may have lived there in the past.
Religion is telling everybody about the house and making up a story for them to believe that somebody had lived there in the past.
Culture is when all those people you told about the house go behind your back and throw a party in there. The next day, you are almost convinced that it is occupied, but have no proof that it is.

Your faith has to do with what you believe in. Never should we say or do something because "it's what your religion says." Your religion supports or matches your faith. If you're faith or belief is in the Bible and in God, would you not want to be with a group that has that same belief? Jesus disciples did not follow him solely because they were told to, but because they believed and had faith in him. John 1:29-51.
Culture can sometimes play a large role in what you believe. Culture has been broadly defined as “a set of shared ideas, . . . the customs, beliefs, and knowledge that characterize a way of life.” We learn many cultural values through direct teaching, but we also absorb much without even being aware of it and can sometimes prevent people from broadening their outlook due to traditions and what not.

Culture is a system of meanings, organization and functions for a particular society. Many of these traits are institutionalized.
Religion is a cultural product - muck like language or kinship systems.
In the sense I think you mean it, faith is the individual, or "conceptual" manifestation of what we think of as religion. In that sense it is an institutionalized sub-set of meanings. In a scientific sense, the validity of the content of "faith" is irrelevant.

Religion is normally by birth. Faith is foundation on which life stands. Culture is removing weeds from life.

Religion is self-righteousness. Faith is trust. Culture is lifestyle. All three of these are in conflict with one another, which is why there is sin in the world and why we cannot get along with one another.
