Podcasts about Boldness

Pastor Judy Dawson speaks about the Kingdom attitude that is found in the tension between humility and boldness. Humility keeps us grounded, reminding us that every gift, opportunity, and victory comes from God. Boldness gives us the courage to step into all that God has called us to do. The challenge is holding both together.

Do you ever feel underpowered? Do you find yourself frustrated with all kinds of things you can't change about yourself, others, or in the circumstances around you? The Bible teaches we have a power source that's powerful beyond our wildest imagination. It's called the power of the Holy Spirit. What is the nature of that power? And how can we tap into it? That's what we'll discuss this Sunday in the third installment of our in-depth study of the Holy Spirit.

RM Swale Sunday - Boldness for Mission - Acts 4 - Matt Spocchia - May 31 2026 by Faversham Community Church

David Platt addresses how believers can share the gospel naturally in everyday circumstances. Prioritizing questions applicable to broad audiences, Platt focuses on equipping Christians to proclaim the gospel with both compassion and boldness. The goal of gospel sharing is not merely personal conversion moments but fruit that extends to people's spheres of influence, airplane conversations, and gospel witness that bears fruit for decades. Commit to speaking the gospel with both greater compassion for the lost and greater boldness in your everyday conversations. Scripture: Matthew 4:19; Matthew 28 Topics: Gospel witness, Evangelism, Discipleship, Boldness, Compassion

We have heard so many dentists say they hate selling. What they really hate is rejection. In this episode, Peter and Craig tackle one of the most misunderstood topics in dentistry and business: sales. Not the sleazy, manipulative version. The kind that every practice owner, leader, and entrepreneur relies on whether they realize it or not. They break down why selling is ultimately about creating value, communicating clearly, and helping people make decisions. The problem is that most dentists never learn how to handle rejection, so they avoid conversations that could grow their practice, improve patient outcomes, and create opportunities for their team. Peter and Craig explore the lessons they've learned from entrepreneurs like Ken Griffin and Roy Kroc, why clarity beats charisma in sales, and how confidence is built through repetition, not talent. They also discuss why ambitious people sabotage themselves by taking rejection personally, when in reality rejection is simply the price of growth. The conversation challenges the idea that technical skill alone creates success. Because if nobody knows who you are, what you do, or why it matters, none of your expertise can create value. If you've ever felt uncomfortable selling, promoting yourself, asking for commitment, or putting yourself out there, this episode is for you. DESCRIPTION The Bulletproof Dental Podcast Episode: 440 HOSTS: Dr. Peter Boulden and Dr. Craig Spodak In this episode, Peter Boulden and Craig Spodak discuss the importance of selling, handling rejection, and creating value in business. They unpack why sales is often misunderstood, why rejection is unavoidable for anyone pursuing growth, and how practice owners can develop the confidence to communicate their value more effectively. From patient conversations and leadership communication to entrepreneurship and personal growth, this episode provides a practical framework for becoming more effective in business without becoming someone you're not. TAKEAWAYS Selling is a fundamental skill for every business owner Most people fear rejection more than they dislike sales Clarity is one of the most powerful tools in communication Confidence comes from repetition, not natural talent Adding value should always come before making an ask Rejection is feedback, not a personal attack Technical expertise alone does not create growth Leaders must learn how to communicate vision effectively Patients are more likely to say yes when they understand the value Boldness is often rewarded more than perfection Business growth requires consistent promotion and visibility The ability to sell impacts every area of leadership and entrepreneurship CHAPTERS 00:00 The Importance of Selling in Business 02:55 Overcoming Rejection and Embracing Leadership 05:28 The Power of Clarity in Selling 08:17 Creating Value and Building a Successful Practice REFERENCES Bulletproof Summit Bulletproof Mastermind

Boldness makes us to speak to the exact mind of God, and to do His exact will. In this message, we see more necessities of boldness, as well as the keys to boldness.

Boldness helps us to take a stand, and to dare anything, in order to fulfill the desire and pleasure of our master. In this message, we see several necessities of boldness that we must emulate, in order to assume our ‘lionic' status in God.

Send us Fan MailIf your content is consistent but your opportunities are not, you might be dealing with a problem most leaders cannot name: the authority gap. I define it as the distance between looking visible online and being genuinely trusted by the people who can hire you, fund you, or partner with you. After 30 years in healthcare technology and now building an AI-powered business accelerator for underserved entrepreneurs, I keep seeing the same pattern: brilliant experts and founders with real solutions still get overlooked because the market cannot quickly recognize their authority signals. AI is accelerating that pain. Tools can produce polished marketing in seconds, which means the internet is filling up with generic ideas and copycat expertise. Buyers are responding with tougher reputation due diligence: they search your name, scan your LinkedIn, review podcast appearances, and look for proof that holds up. Trust is becoming the scarce resource, and digital discoverability is now inseparable from leadership reputation, personal branding, and business brand growth. I break down my Brave Authority Index, a practical authority-building framework built on five connected pillars: Boldness, Resilience, Authenticity, Vision, and Execution. You will hear how to sharpen a specific market position, build durable credibility across platforms, show real human coherence without oversharing, publish future-facing ideas your audience can use, and create follow-up systems that turn visibility into revenue. I also walk through a case study where a B2B firm moves from commodity IT vendor to inbound demand by connecting thought leadership to clear next steps and measurable pipeline. If you want to stop sounding like everyone else and start getting believed, subscribe, share this with a friend who is “visible but stuck,” and leave a review so more leaders can find it.Thanks for tuning in to this episode of Follow The Brand!

In the latest episode of Scratch, Tracey-Lee gets into what it really takes to build trust in a controversial space, how she sells brand investment to a CFO who only speaks performance, and the Black Friday campaign where Payflex faked a data breach and somehow lived to tell the tale. The key takeaway:  1. Radical honesty is not a risk, it's a requirement In a controversial category, you have to be as loud with your rebuttals as your critics are with their attacks. Silence reads as guilt. 2. BNPL customers aren't who the headlines say they are Payflex users are not over-indebted people stretching to survive. They're actualizing. Identity-driven. The emotional need sits at the top of Maslow's hierarchy, not the bottom. 3. The two-year brand cliff is real Cut brand budget today, nothing happens for six months, maybe a year. Then sales tank. And to recover it, you spend two to three times what you cut. The lag is the weapon CMOs need to use in every CFO conversation. 4. Brief writing is a tattoo, not a tick box WATTW. What are we trying to achieve here. If you can't answer that before you brief, you shouldn't be briefing. 5. Marketing is an advocate for the market, not a go-to-market function Marketers need to be in the product room early, sometimes aggressively, because no product strategy survives contact with a customer insight that nobody bothered to bring in. 6. Learn the finances early The biggest unlock in Tracey-Lee's career was understanding what CFOs actually care about: customer equity, market share, lifetime value. Not ROAS. 7. Boldness needs justification, not just instinct The data breach campaign worked because it had a clear strategic logic behind it. Payflex is an innovator and Black Friday demands standout or silence.

What happens when your testimony challenges someone else's beliefs? In this episode, we continue the powerful story of the man born blind as he faces intense pressure from religious leaders who refuse to accept the truth. Despite interrogation, intimidation, and rejection, he stands firm in what he knows—he was blind, and now he sees. This episode explores the tension between truth and pride, the courage it takes to stand firm in your testimony, and the reality that not everyone will celebrate what God has done in your life. Sometimes truth doesn't just enlighten—it offends.

What do you do when your testimony is put on trial? In this episode, we step into the tension of John 9 where the healed man is dragged before the Pharisees. What should have been a celebration turns into an interrogation. Questions are fired. Doubts are raised. Pressure builds—not just on him, but even on his family. Jesus warned this would happen. When your faith becomes visible, it also becomes vulnerable to scrutiny. But in the middle of questioning, God gives something powerful: boldness, clarity, and the right words at the right time.

Title: A New Way to WalkScripture Reading: Matthew 14:22-33Series: Be Bold!What does it look like to step out of the boat and walk with boldness when the storms of life begin to rise? In this message, we examine Peter's encounter with Jesus on the Sea of Galilee to discover a 'W.A.L.K.' acronym for being bold. We begin by recognizing that Jesus's bold WALK enables our bold walk. To follow Him, we must ABANDON fear for faith. We find stability only when we LOCK eyes with Jesus, refusing to let the wind and waves of our circumstances distract us from His presence. Finally, true boldness leads us to KNEEL in worship, acknowledging Jesus's sovereignty over all creation and His unique power to save us when we cry out. Commit to locking your eyes on Jesus today and call out to Him for help, trusting that He is already walking through the storm with you.

There's a spiritual awakening building in our nation, and it's time to move from a flickering flame to an unstoppable wildfire. Drawing from Peter's radical transformation in Acts 4, Taryn explores how intimacy with Jesus and the courage to use our voice can set our communities ablaze. Join us as we learn how to trade silence for Spirit-led boldness and carry a contagious hope into the world.

Fear is a currency that buys consent to the enemy, crippling your divine purpose. Stop meditating on worldly lies. Discover how to guard your mind with God's Word and live boldly in the spirit of power, love, and a sound mind today.

As the early church started to grow, Luke records in Acts 4 how all of the leaders began to unite against Jesus and his servants Paul and John and the other disciples. He lists that Herod, Pontius Pilot, the Governor, the Gentiles, and the people of Israel who were united against him. Peter and John began to pray and asked for boldness in speaking out against the culture. God granted them that boldness, and they began to turn the world upside down. Hey, we live in an age today where many people do not believe in who God is and what His plan is for life. You and I have a choice—we can cave in and follow along with the culture, or we can ask for boldness. Make a good choice. Ask for God's boldness, and then get ready to experience the great things He has in store for you.

Sean Azzaro and Barron Wiley discuss how Christians can engage entertainment like Star Wars and Harry Potter with discernment, using it as an opportunity to help kids think biblically and critically rather than avoiding everything outright. They explore what it means to “share your faith, use words if necessary,” emphasizing that lifestyle matters but the New Testament also calls believers to speak about Jesus. The conversation compares different approaches to evangelism—from street-corner preaching to relational, everyday conversations—and highlights witnessing as simply telling what you've seen God do.

This week we'll be studying Acts 13:4-12 under the theme “Blinded by the Truth.” We learn that when the church speaks the truth of Jesus with Paul-like courage, and confronts falsehood head-on, the end result is both opening the eyes of some, while also exposing and disabling the darkness of others.Series Summary: The Book of Acts is a companion volume to The Gospel of Luke. It tells the story of the early Christian Church. For 2000 years, Christian churches have often studied Acts in the weeks following Easter, learning what early Christians did after Jesus' death and resurrection, and contextualizing that lifestyle into modern times. We seek to do the same with our series, “O, Church Arise."Add St. Marcus as your church on the Church Center App!Fill out our online connection cardHow can we pray for you?

In a culture that rewards staying quiet about religious beliefs, Jase, Al, and Zach challenge whether that kind of faith actually works. The guys reflect on Phil's turning point after his baptism, when he chose to go public with his belief in Jesus—a decision that shaped the rest of the whole family's lives. Jase digs deeper into what “confidence before God” means and explores the instructions the Bible leaves us about how to stand before the Lord without shame.
