For the past few weeks, we have been examining biblical characters and seeing how they have used their faith in God to overcome their fears. We will continue this series today, but instead of looking at the past, we will be using a real-life modern-day character to illustrate this concept. That person happens to be sitting in this church today. He may not know it, but he is a living testimony of how God works in adverse circumstances, when faith and trust are placed in God alone.
