thor

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'powerful god' is the definition.
'Thor' can be an answer for 'god' (Thor is an example). I'm not sure about the 'powerful' bit.

'still meeting resistance' is the wordplay.
'still' becomes 'tho' (though).
'meeting' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'resistance' becomes 'r' (electronics abbreviation).
'tho'+'r'='THOR'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for thor that I've seen before include "Comic superhero" , "Norse hammer-wielding god" , "Norse god of war" , "can be classed as immortal" , "Thunderous god" .)
