Description

What does it look like to have Christian fortitude in the age of agitation and anxiety? How can we be sober-minded when emotional mobs are demanding our empathy? Joe Rigney talks through these Biblical character traits - what it looks like when it goes wrong (both in the Church and culturally) and how Christians can stand for what is good and right. 


Dr. Rigney served as a professor and president of Bethlehem College & Seminary in Minneapolis, a pastor at Cities Church in St. Paul, and a teacher at Desiring God. Minnesota lost a good one! Joe is now in Moscow serving as a Fellow of Theology at New Saint Andrews College.
