Overcoming Opposition

Pastor Hunter Jones · Mar 15, 2026

Drawing from Nehemiah 6, Pastor Hunter Jones argues that every believer is called by God to something specific, and the critical question is whether we will stay unreasonably committed when opposition comes. Using Nehemiah's example of finishing Jerusalem's wall in 52 days against enemy opposition, the sermon teaches that the enemy attacks our calling through distraction, slander, and fear — and that we must respond with uncompromising devotion, an unshakable identity rooted in God, and an unrelenting refocus on who God is. The reward for that kind of commitment is transformation that causes even our opponents to recognize the hand of God.
