Quotes:

Action Steps:

  • Courage isn’t found in you: it’s from a foundation based on God. When the Bible speaks about courage, it’s always tied to the Lord. Inviting God into your life naturally invites courage.
  • The Gospel is accessible via both rigorous academic study and simple experience of the transforming work of God. Be His hands and speak His truth.
