Handling Opposition To Your Faith—Part Two
Pastor Rick Warren

The Bible says that “anyone who belongs to Christ Jesus and wants to live right will have trouble from others” (2 Timothy 3:12 CEV). Join Pastor Rick for this message series as he explains why you will face opposition to your faith and what you need to remember, what you need to do, and how God will bless you when you stand firm in your faith.The pressure you feel to cave in, be quiet, or sit down when you should stand up is not coming from other people. Pastor Rick explains in this message why, when you face opposition because of your faith, you need to recognize the source of the opposition.
