Some of the hardest moments in life happen when doing what’s right creates tension with the people around you.
In this week’s message, The Friction of Faith, Pastor Alvin guides us into that uncomfortable space between conviction and compromise, pressure and purpose, fear and trust.
Through the story of Esther, Mordecai, and Haman in Esther 3, we wrestle with the kind of questions many of us carry but rarely say out loud:
- What happens when faith costs you something?
- Why does pride seem to rise while faithfulness gets overlooked?
- And where is God when life feels unfair, chaotic, or painfully quiet?
Whether you’ve followed Jesus for years, are skeptical about faith, or simply trying to make sense of your own life, this conversation speaks to the pressure we all feel to bow to something.
But maybe the deeper battle in life isn’t just what’s happening around us. Maybe it’s also what’s happening within us.
So join us as we examine the tension of staying grounded in a world that constantly asks you to compromise, while holding onto the hope that, even when God feels silent, He is not absent.
