Are Christians Really Being Persecuted?
David Guzik addresses the issue of persecution of the Christian Church in our western world, in anticipation of what is to come but also in light of the present situation. 10 Myths about Persecution: 1.

Persecution has to directly impact everyone before it is real persecution. 5. Persecutors openly hate Jesus Christ and Christianity. 6. Christians are persecuted without reason. 7. Christians should always silently accept persecution. 8. Persecution always unites the Church. 9. Persecution never “Works.” 10. Persecution is the worst thing that can happen to Christians.
