When Peter and the apostles were imprisoned for preaching, they seemed to defy their civic leaders when they responded, “we must obey God rather than men.” But on Focal Point today, Mike Fabarez presents a better biblical test to apply when we wonder about submitting to or resisting governmental authority.
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.
