Many Christians picture themselves as independent, capable people. But in the Bible, Christ-followers are often compared to sheep—and it’s not exactly a compliment. Sheep are stubborn, rebellious, and prone to wander off. So, what is God trying to tell us? Pastor Mike Fabarez reminds us why we should follow the Good Shepherd.
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.
