It's a sentiment on every Christmas card and sung in a famous carol … "Peace on earth, goodwill towards men." Yet Jesus said he came not to bring peace, but a sword. What's the real story? Today on Focal Point, Pastor Mike Fabarez clarifies the biblical reason for the coming of Messiah.
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.
