117894: Courage: Persevering in the Face of Fear

Courage: Persevering in the Face of Fear
By Jon Johnston

What's our God-directed responsibility to exhibit genuine courage? In a troubled sea of shifting values, where courage is needed most, we will draw upon the Lord to take a stand for what's right and wrong? We have a hope, grounded in our Saviour, to overcome all fear and doubt. Godly courage requires that we struggle against the tide, take unpopular stands, and reach out to people in need. Ultimatley it requires that we ignore the many reasons the world gives for not acting and following the example of Christ.
