Do It Afraid
Rev. Kent Chevalier // Isaiah 43:18-19 & Matthew 6:26
Have you ever had a moment where you knew you were supposed to do something, but the risk was too much? You wanted to ask her out, but you chickened out. You wanted that job, but you didn’t apply. A difficult conversation was needed, but you didn’t have it. We’ve all been there.
In this sermon, we’re going to explore what it looks like to have a faith in Christ that’s certain enough to step out in those moments of uncertainty and fear. It can be scary when God asks us to do something, and just because we trust Jesus doesn’t mean it will be easy. It just means He gives us the courage do it afraid.
