Out of the Comfort Zone

What it Means to Live Defiant

What it Means to Live Defiant
To us, being defiant means that we don’t run from conflict.  To be defiant means that we are willing to stand against opposing forces.  It means we are willing to fight through adversity and come out stronger.  And it means that, when things get tough, we are willing to forge ahead anyway.
