We all make assumptions. Sometimes, what we believe will happen does. And sometimes it doesn’t, which can lend itself to frustration or anger. Pastor Mike Fabarez talks about Unmet Expectations, and about the time Herod Antipas met Jesus, but became disappointed when his idea of who Jesus was didn’t match with the reality.
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.
