Challenges must be faced in every hero's journey.
Nobody truly lives, truly grows, without trials, without opposition.
Have you faced some big challenges? Have you felt like giving up? You're not alone. The first faith community formed in Acts 2, starts off with a bang and has an (initially) positive, wide-ranging impact. But it's not a "Utopia" story; it's a real story.
This Sunday, Letitia Yund (our Campus Pastor through Intervarsity at Cal Poly Humboldt) shares as we look at the next few chapters in Acts. We see these first Jesus followers begin to come under pressure, face criticism, endure misunderstandings, and experience opposition. How will they react? How do they handle it?
What can help us face our own challenges? How can we respond with grace and boldness?
