We all need someone we can lean on, learn from, and turn to for guidance, support, and godly counsel. What’s the magnetic trait that makes a person such an effective support? In a word, courage.

In a world built on the shifting sands of public opinion and compromise, the church relies on people of unbending courage, character, and principle to help the weak and light the way.

John MacArthur offers four pictures of that sort of strength in The Courageous Christian. See what you can learn from the life of a teacher, a soldier, an athlete, and a farmer. And learn about the armour that God has outfitted you with — spiritual armour.

This study will help you set a course for becoming the courageous Christian others will lean on and look to for help.
