The Necessity of Courage | Toby Sumpter

It is easy for christians to shrink back and stand down in the face of conflict and persecution. Fear, hatred, threats and conflict have a way of muddying our convictions as followers of Christ. In this message, Pastor Toby Sumpter unpacks the root of fear and our call to covenantal courage in the church and the christian life. In recent years we have a growing concern about “social justice.” What is meant by that phrase, however, varies widely among those who use and promote it. What is too often missing—even in the calls for “social justice” coming from Christian leaders—is a clear understanding of biblical justice. Justice exists because God is just and righteous. He is the One who defines justice and He has revealed what true justice is in the Bible. For more resources on these topics, you can visit www.founders.org. This presentation was given by Toby Sumpter on January 4, 2019 at the Southeast Founders "Do Justice, Love Kindness, Walk Humbly" regional conference in Cape Coral, Florida.
