Have you ever felt rejected, misunderstood, or even mocked for standing up for your faith? Jesus warned His followers this would happen — and He also gave them (and us) a promise that changes everything about how we face it.
In this message from John 15:18-27, Pastor John Hester continues our series "At Home in the Vine" by unpacking why the world's hostility toward Christians isn't a sign we're doing something wrong — it's often a sign we're doing something right. We'll look at the example of Stephen in Acts 6-7, a man who faced deadly opposition yet remained bold, bearing witness to Christ to his very last breath.
Whether you're a longtime believer feeling the pressure to stay quiet about your faith, or you're wrestling with why Christianity seems to provoke such strong reactions, this message will equip you to understand — and endure — the cost of following Jesus.
