Beginning last fall, we observed this young church as they faced stiff resistance to their efforts to be witnesses to the life, death and resurrection of Jesus. From these early years of the church, obstacles, resistance, and challenges have been a common theme. But, against all odds, instead of being choked out by resistance and put to death by force and power, the Church has survived and even thrived through it. Today I want to show you one of the keys that can make the church an unquenchable flame.
