R.C. Sproul: "We’re Surrounded by Wimps"—Standing Firm in a Hostile World

Are we becoming too intimidated by a secular culture that views the Gospel as foolishness? In this powerful and challenging lecture on 1 Corinthians 1 & 2, Dr. R.C. Sproul addresses the temptation of modern Christians—especially in academic and public spheres—to compromise the truth of God to gain intellectual acceptability. Dr. Sproul connects Archimedes’ famous scientific claim ("Give me a lever long enough and I can move the world") to the supreme lever of history: the Cross of Calvary. He shares a deeply personal memory of his close friend, Dr. James Montgomery Boice, who warned on his deathbed, "R.C., we're surrounded by wimps," prompting Sproul to pray, "Oh God, don't let me be a wimp." Discover why the cross remains a stumbling block to the world, how Jonathan Edwards' classic sermon "A Divine and Supernatural Light" explains the Holy Spirit's role in illuminating our minds, and why we must proudly claim the ultimate honor of being "fools for Christ." #RCSproul #PreachingTheCross #ChristianCourage #BibleStudy #Apologetics
