Live Boldly

May 26, 2013Dr. John King, Senior PastorLiving BoldlyBook of Ecclesiastes

This message emphasizes the importance of living boldly in faith, drawing from the story of the Israelite spies in the Old Testament. The speaker contrasts the fearful responses of ten spies with the faith-filled perspectives of Joshua and Caleb, illustrating how a bold approach leads to rewards. Key principles for living boldly include taking risks, being generous, accepting unchangeable circumstances, not waiting for perfect conditions, trusting in God's providence, and seizing opportunities. Ultimately, the message encourages listeners to engage with life actively and trust God for the outcomes.

Ecclesiastes 11:1-6Proverbs 11:242 Timothy 4:2
