When you live your faith boldly in the workplace, you're bound to face opposition—from policies that restrict expression, to coworkers who mock your values, to cultural narratives that paint you as out of touch. You're not imagining it—and you're not alone.

In this episode, we turn to Nehemiah 4 for encouragement and direction. Nehemiah's leadership during the rebuilding of Jerusalem's walls reveals what it means to lead with courage when pressure comes from every direction. North, south, east, and west—Nehemiah was surrounded. But he stayed focused, stayed faithful, and strengthened his people with prayer and practical steps.

You'll learn 5 essential leadership lessons for facing opposition:

• Expect resistance when you pursue godly goals.
• Recognize the sources of opposition—whether it's mockery, pressure, fear, or policy.
• Respond first in prayer, not panic.
• Stay faithful and keep building what God called you to build.
• Encourage others with the truth: "Our God will fight for us!" (Nehemiah 4:20)

This episode is especially for Christian leaders who feel boxed in or weary from spiritual, cultural, or organizational resistance. Whether you're leading a team, a business, or a ministry, Nehemiah's example will help you stand firm and lead well.

You'll also walk away with 5 action steps and discussion questions to apply with your team or reflect on personally.

If you're under pressure for your faith in the workplace, listen in—this message will remind you that you're not fighting alone.
