It's been said, "Just because you're in a garage doesn’t mean you're a car." External factors—like where you hang out—don't necessarily prove who you are on the inside. Pastor Mike Fabarez describes the danger of having the outward appearance of Christianity without a true change of heart.
True courage is rare. And when we see it, we may question our own spiritual resolve when we are confronted or censored. The early church thrived not despite opposition, but through it and Christians today are facing increased attacks to their faith that may cost them something in their lives.
Learn how the courageous stories of men and women of faith can bolster your confidence to stand up when you face opposition.
