What Would You Risk for Jesus?

What does it mean to "contend earnestly for the faith"? In this Daily Hope devotional, Pastor John S. Dickerson shares the remarkable story of Elijah Lovejoy—a pastor, newspaper editor, and follower of Christ who refused to compromise his convictions, even when it cost him everything. Drawing from Jude 1:3, this message reminds us that following Jesus requires both courage and dependence on God. Lovejoy's unwavering commitment to truth became a powerful example of what it looks like to stand firm when facing opposition. As we pray for the next Great Awakening, we're challenged to ask ourselves: What are we willing to risk for the sake of Christ? God continues to use ordinary believers who faithfully stand for truth, love others, and refuse to compromise their faith.
