“Indeed, all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will be persecuted.” —2 Timothy 3:12

Paul’s life not only demonstrates the accuracy of these words—he was stoned, imprisoned, and ultimately martyred. But it also reveals the keys to enduring all sorts of trials. In this message, Dr. Stanley makes plain the source of Paul’s unshakeable courage.

Just as trials and suffering are inescapable in this life, so too is God’s presence. No matter what you have to face, you never have to endure it alone.
