How can I fight the enemy with my actions? A common question for Christians, with many different answers. Emma Dotter interviews Lucas Esteves as he gives the listeners what may feel like a simple answer, but if you are willing to truly apply this practice, it can be radical. Lucas says we are simply to “Praise the Lord.” By using additional Scriptures throughout the Bible, Lucas articulates the example of Jesus in praising God amidst all circumstances.
