STAND (Week 2): When the World Calls You by Another Name

We don’t fight for victory—we surrender to it. In Ephesians 6, Paul calls us to stand in the Lord’s strength. In Daniel 1–3, a remnant refuses to bow when Babylon tries to rename and re-educate them. This week’s message unpacks why private surrender precedes public standing, how Jesus “disarmed the rulers and authorities” (Colossians 2:15), and why the cost of standing is rising in our culture—yet so is the presence of God.
