Our Latest Message

Courage Over Fear, Pt 3

Fear has a way of stopping us before we even start. Whether it's fear of rejection, embarrassment, or what people might say online, most of us know what it feels like to stay quiet when we should speak up. In this final message of the "Courage Over Fear" series, Pastor Jim draws from Proverbs 3:5, Matthew 10, and Romans 11 to show that the call to share your faith has never been without risk. Even Jesus sent his disciples out "as lambs among wolves."

The message lands on a simple truth: God is bigger than whatever fear is holding you back. From Pastor Gabriel standing up to a power-hungry usurper in his own church in Mexico while still recovering from cancer surgery, to Paul's clear-eyed defense of Israel in Romans 11, the thread running through every story is the same. Trust God, stay focused, and courage will follow. You don't need a title. You just need to take the next step.
