The Harsh But Good News
We all carry around an internal list of our accomplishments, talents, or trophies. It’s the résumé of our worth. On this edition of Focal Point, Mike Fabarez explains that whether our résumés of righteousness are large or small, none of our good works move us any closer to God. The grace and love of the Lord is not the result of zealous self-improvement, but a humble reliance on the finished work of Christ.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.
