In a Fox News opinion piece, pastor and author Max Lucado argues that amid rapid, disorienting change, Christians can find courage and stability through faith rather than being overwhelmed by modern pressures. He draws on the biblical story of the prophet Elijah, who faced overwhelming odds, to illustrate how believers today can confront feelings of being outnumbered and outmatched by the world's problems.

Lucado describes a sense many people share of facing an ever-growing list of threats—problems, fears, deadlines and bills—while feeling isolated and outmatched, comparing this to the 850-to-1 odds Elijah faced in the Old Testament. The piece ties into Lucado's Fox Nation special, "A Call to Unbreakable Courage," in which he discusses how faith and scripture can help people manage fear and anxiety, framing courage not as the absence of fear but as a response grounded in belief.
