When Faithful Stands Cost You Your Job, with Aaron Edwards (Encore)
Manage episode 463373499 series 3371142
Many Christians today fear their faith may one day cost them their job. They are not sure what to do. Should they keep their faith secret? Simply go along to get along? What would it be like if they actually got fired for following Christ?
Dr. Aaron Edwards knows a thing or two about getting fired for faithful stands. Believe it or not, he was recently fired as a Christian teacher from a Christian college for a Christian stand.
His offense: publicly speaking out about sin infiltrating the Church. This was too much for Cliff College, a school in Britain. When internet rage mobs demanded Aaron lose his job, his employer quickly capitulated.
It was difficult for Aaron, his wife, and their five children. But there was also surprising joy in faithfully standing and seeing God and fellow believers respond. His story reminds us that following Christ is high adventure, with plenty of drama but also joy.
