Questions Christians are Scared to Answer with Jonathan Pokluda

Welcome back to Stay True Podcast! In this episode we explore what it means to be a Christian, how to handle suffering and hate as a Christian, how to stay firm in your faith under trial and temptation, and how to embrace the cost of following Jesus. Following Jesus does not promise a life of ease and comfort, for it will come with challenges, criticism, and maybe getting canceled or rejected by friends or family, but it also comes with inexpressible joy, peace, purpose, and a hope for heaven and eternal glory. Join us as we dive into what it really means to be godly in an ungodly world and the suffering and hate that may come as you take a stand for Truth and speak Truth. Stay you and stay true! We also talk about: - What it means to be a Christian - The Christian public life and private life - Suffering for being a Christian - How to respond to hate with love - Unwavering Faith in the midst of hardship and suffering - Living with eternal perspective AND SO MUCH MORE!
