Christians have, in the gospel, the best news imaginable for a dying world. So why is our message ridiculed, ignored and rejected?

Paul Yeulett examines the various types of opposition Jesus encountered - demonic, political, religious, emotional, physical and spiritual - and helps us understand why they happen, in both the life of Jesus and our own lives. Alongside this examination of darkness, he reminds us of the light of Christ's victory that strengthens us to keep proclaiming his good news even in the face of opposition.
