Summary

From day one, Christians have faced ridicule, torture, and even death because they refused to give up their faith. And though Christians in America may not face physical attack, those who truly want to live for God still face intellectual attack, being labeled as radicals and lunatics. In fact, Richard Dawkins once argued that teaching a child about God should be considered child abuse. So in a world that’s opposed to everything we believe, how can we stand strong? Pastor J.D. brings an answer from Hebrews chapter 12.
