961: At the Dire Stretch // 1940 07 (Eric Ludy)

This is the seventh and final installment in Eric Ludy's winter Daily Thunder series, 1940, which follows the epic storyline of Hitler's rise to power in Europe in the the '30's and Great Britain's unexpected stand to thwart his progress. In this episode, Eric focuses on how the believer stands in the midst of darkest hour. Winston Churchill’s example in 1940 is a stirring picture of leadership in a time of crushing circumstances. But, Churchill’s example fades into the background when the profound illustration of Jesus Christ’s leadership in the darkest hour is presented. As believers, it is this very Man (Jesus) that dwells in us via the Holy Spirit, so that, we too, can walk triumphantly through the dire stretch.
