The church has the privilege of proclaiming the greatest news in all of history—that God sent his Son to be the Savior of the world! However, the fact that this gospel message is good news doesn’t mean it will be popular. In fact, those who proclaim Jesus should expect opposition and persecution. In this message from Mark 6:14–29, David Platt points to the example of John the Baptist’s death as a reminder that following Jesus is costly. But, as Scripture also makes clear, the reward of following Jesus is greater than the cost—both for us and for those with whom we have the privilege of sharing the gospel.
Secret Church happens once a year, inspired by believers who gather at great cost. On April 17, over 50,000 believers from around the world will come together online to study the life of Elijah, pray for persecuted Christians and act together to make Jesus known among unreached places in the world. If you're able, we hope you join us. Register at radical.net/secretchurch.
