Facing Fears & Taking Risks in Ministry

Подробнее о видео

Ep. 208: Many Bible students believe that Timothy was only 16 years old when he left home to follow the Apostle Paul in the work of church planting. It's hard to believe that someone so young would commit to something so big. What kind of mindset would be required for such a young man to make such an important decision? Can you imagine the fears that he and his parents had to overcome to get to that place? What did Timothy have to risk in order to see God use him in such a mighty way? We have become risk averse in the evangelical church today.

We fear what we can't see, and we are prone to dreaming small. We prefer comfort to victory. Many of us are stagnant in our ministry because we fear saying yes to the call of God on our lives. But what makes us risk averse? How is it that we've gotten to this place? How do we as individuals, and churches, overcome tiny thinking and instead come to a place of true sacrifice and service? On today's show, Provost of The Living Faith Bible Institute Brandon Briscoe has invited Jonathan Kindler, faculty professor of Biblical Counseling & Spiritual Formation at LFBI, to discuss what it means to overcome fear in our ministry.
