While building the new facility for New Fellowship Church of Fort Worth, I learned how to properly manage my pain. During those persecution years the very same people who called me to lead as their pastor bore false witness against me and what God called me to do. I didn't realize it then but they would ultimately be responsible for my promotion. I had to remind myself often to remain faithful in God, to trust in His word and His instructions, and to forego my underdog mentality. God's plan for the life of my wife and family was different from mine. Not only did He want us to build the church and its people, He also wanted to rebuild me and free me from the bondage I had become accustomed to. I encourage you as you read this book and answer the Faith Fact questions at the end of the chapters, to move forward in the call that God has on your life, despite the persecution you are facing or will face. I want you to overlook that persecution, to turn your back on your emotions and to trust God like you've never trusted Him before because doing so will ensure your promotion and His glory.
