Why Persecution Might Be God’s Plan for Revival

We’re quick to pray, “Lord, take this away,” when life gets hard—but what if God is using your struggle to spread the gospel? In this clip, Ben and Derek talk about a missionary who asked believers not to pray that persecution would stop, because through it, people are finding Jesus. It’s a powerful reminder that our pain can have a purpose, and that even in discomfort, God gives us the words and wisdom to stand firm.
