Faith Under Fire: The Rise of Bold and Courageous Churches

There was a man named C.T. Studd, a Cambridge athlete turned missionary, who took off with six others to serve the Lord—earning them the name "The Cambridge Seven." When he went to Africa, he talked about "chocolate soldiers"—those who melt under pressure and fail to stand firm in the heat of battle. That term stuck with me because today, we've got too many "plastic pulpits" that fold under pressure—whether it's fear of controversy, politics, or cultural pushback. What if we had a public review of churches willing to stand for truth versus those that avoid it? I think people are hungry for conviction and courage, and it's time for the real soldiers to rise up!
