Seminar: Living with a Tyrant: How to Stand Strong Through the Storm - Jim Cunningham
Seminar Synopsis
Jesus lived and trained his disciples under a brutal totalitarian government: The Roman Empire. We will examine what Jesus taught his disciples about how to live and respond victoriously to the 'five-R's' who would pursue them: Relatives, Religious Leaders, Rulers, Rich Guys and 'Rowdies'.

Testimonials from Standing Strong Through the Storm: More and more Christians around the world are becoming aware it is an illusion to believe biblical Christian living guarantees a trouble-free life. Jesus Himself said otherwise. Overcoming victory is not the removal of suffering and persecution but standing strong in the midst of it.
Standing Strong Through the Storm guides you through the process and discovery of vital, biblical keys to becoming a Christian who can stand strong - and be victorious - no matter what the storm. This is an excellent work. It is thorough, practical, well-supported biblically but also effectively illustrated from the experiences of the suffering people of God. - Terrance L. Tiessen, PhD, Professor Emeritus, Providence College & Seminary, Otterburne, MB, Canada Standing Strong Through the Storm (SSTS) provides training for leadership in the Persecuted Church offering them instruction and counsel to face current and pending crises. I have shared in teaching the SSTS seminar and found it provides an excellent forum to share blessings and insights with one another in the service of Christ. This mutuality motivates the Body of Christ to press on in its evangelism and discipleship efforts. This book is recommended for believers in any country. - Cartin Weinhauer, Willingdon Church, Burnaby, BC, Canada Standing Strong Through the Storm is very good material. It prepares us theoretically and practically for pressures and persecution that can come to any of us at any time. I wish this had been available in the 1960's when the Baptist Church in Russia experienced much conflict and suffering. - Nikolai Popov, retired Russian pastor of the Underground Baptist Church who spent ten years in the Gulag. (He was the first reviewer of SSTS in Russian.) In my 35 years serving the Persecuted Church and travelling with Brother Andrew all over the world, I have had one great desire: "How can we effectively communicate the lessons we have learned from our persecuted brethren? Well here you have it... an historic book! It will revolutionize your walk with the Lord." - Johan Companjen, President Emeritus, Open Doors Int'l |
