✨ They went from hiding in fear to preaching in public
✨ Most were hunted down, tortured, and killed for their faith
✨ John was the only disciple to die of old age — after persecution and exile
✨ Following Jesus was never about comfort — it was about obedience
🧭 Big Takeaway
Following Jesus isn’t about being comfortable or convenient.
It’s about:
