Episode Description from the Publisher

Pastor Kevin talks about a struggle that every believer faces. It's about showing the truth of Jesus in a world that often gets it wrong or fights against us. Based on John 13, John 15, and Ephesians 6, he reminds us that staying strong in Christ’s truth might lead to times when we are rejected. However, our safety doesn’t come from what people think of us; it comes from being held by God.Whether you struggle with seeking approval or are wrestling through relational friction, this message offers grounding hope: you are secure in the Father’s hands, called to love with the power only His Spirit supplies.Scriptures ReferencedJohn 13:34-35, 15:1-19; Ephesians 6:10-17; John 10:27-29; Romans 3:23Key InsightsIf your goal is approval, truth will feel optional.You don’t win a spiritual battle by attacking people.If you don’t suit up spiritually, you will show up emotionally.Loving others well comes only through the power of the Holy Spirit, not just willpower.Confession and honest vulnerability build authentic community.https://springhouse.captivate.fm/episode/hated-but-heldSubscribe & Follow the PodcastDownload our appOur WebsiteOnline Tithes & OfferingsJoin our LivestreamGathering TimesSundays, 9:00 AMSundays, 11:00 AMThursdays, 6:00 PMContact InfoSpringhouse Church14119 Old Nashville HighwaySmyrna TN 37167615-459-3421CCLI License 2070006
