Following Christ offers invaluable rewards. But if your goal is to be popular, then Christianity may not be for you! Pastor Mike Fabarez explains why embracing Christ is incompatible with gaining the approval of men in a challenging lesson about the angry backlash Saul faced from his former friends after his conversion.
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.
