⚔️ Being a real man isn't about status, comfort, or approval. A real man was designed to demonstrate the glory of God on this earth. Byron teaches us that: A real man discovers his mission in the Kingdom of Heaven — and he does it. A real man becomes a son of God, operating in the same Spirit Jesus promised through the Comforter. A real man moves with faith and obedience, like Abraham, without hesitation. This is the hardest, most masculine journey you will ever take — chasing after your God-given destiny. Just like David facing Goliath, a real man steps up because he knows who his God is. ⚜️ That's Man of Peace masculinity. That's what a true man looks like. To see more, subscribe

David faced many battles, but Goliath was his first with many eyes watching. David leaned on God's past faithfulness to give him courage for the current situation he was in. thebridgebluffton.com
We're living in a world where evil is rebranded as progress, silence is mistaken for peace, and truth is traded for opinion. But Scripture shows us, just like David on the battlefield against Goliath, that evil grows when it goes unnamed. Intimidation loses its power the moment we call it out for what it is and declare God's truth in its place. In this message, we unpack why the real fight isn't physical but spiritual, why silence fuels giants, and how your words can set the stage for victory. It's time to stop bowing to intimidation and start standing boldly in God's authority.
We go back to the movies as a church and look at the story of Daniel LaRusso from The Karate Kid. We see how he trains for a fight and how we are meant to travel for the spiritual battles of life. We connect Daniel's training to David preparing for Goliath. Join us as we see the correct way to train for spiritual battles.

David defeats Goliath This sermon on 1 Samuel 17 calls believers to see the battle between David and Goliath as a living picture of spiritual warfare. David's refusal to wear Saul's armor shows the need to lay aside what does not fit and instead trust God with what He has already placed in our hands. The message highlights how the enemy uses weapons such as deception, division, isolation, and accusation, but like David, we must recognize these tactics and confront them in the strength of the Lord. David's confidence was not in his sling or stones, but in the name of the living God, reminding us that victory comes through faith and obedience. The sermon urges Christians to prepare in their “shepherd's field” seasons so that when giants arise, they will be ready to stand firm, act in faith, and live as witnesses to God's power and faithfulness.
This message, The Power of David’s Hunger (Part 2), explores how David’s spiritual hunger drove him to fight battles, overcome criticism, endure jealousy, and remain faithful under pressure. His example shows that true hunger for God sustains us through trials, keeps our hearts humble, and strengthens our resolve to follow Him
We can handle delays with flights, packages, or projects—but what about when the delay is in our obedience to God? In this powerful message from the GIANTS series, discover how David's immediate faith put him in position for victory over Goliath—and why delayed obedience isn't really obedience at all. Don't wait for “someday”… the time to trust God is now.
Discover the extraordinary life of King David. From humble shepherd to Israel's greatest monarch, David's journey is filled with faith, triumph, and human frailty. Explore key moments like his defeat of Goliath, friendship with Jonathan, and ascension to the throne. Delve into the Davidic Covenant and its messianic implications. Learn about David's military conquests, his role as a psalmist, and his deep relationship with God.

You were never created to live with a “just take what you get” mentality. Gratitude is powerful, but settling for “good enough” has robbed too many people of reaching higher. In this episode, Pastor Maurice unpacks 7 Proofs of the Unlimited Mindset—biblical principles that will break limitations and expand your capacity for more. Discover how David remembered his covenant and shattered the lie that he couldn't defeat Goliath. Learn why recognizing your authority in Christ is essential for living above limits. See why leaning fully into your God-given desires is not selfish but spiritual, and why settling for less than God's best is never an option. From multiplying money with ease to living covenant-minded instead of circumstance-minded, this message will challenge you to take the lid off your life. Abraham never went back. Ruth never went back. And you don't have to either. Step into the expansive life God intended. Join us every Sunday at 11 AM for a powerful time of worship, teaching, and community.

As President Trump's immigration crackdown intensifies, many immigrants who have lived, worked and paid taxes in the United States for years are getting snatched by masked agents and disappeared into a vast network of jails across the country.In Vermont, a small but growing group of young attorneys have thrown themselves into the fight to defend the immigrants' rights. Newly minted lawyers, including recent graduates of Vermont Law and Graduate School, are now going head to head with lawyers from Trump's Justice Department.The attorneys have been going into Vermont's jails and encountering terrified immigrants, many of whom are being repeatedly shuffled between states in what appears to be a deliberate effort to frustrate their attempts to obtain effective legal representation. Some detainees do not even know where they are. Vermont Asylum Assistance Project (VAAP), headed by immigration attorney Jill Martin Diaz, has been a driving force behind the effort to mobilize lawyers and defend immigrants. VAAP has grown from one staff member in 2024 to what will be a staff of eight by November, including four new attorneys who are part of the national Immigrant Justice Corps. VAAP recently received a $100,000 grant from the recently established Vermont Immigration Legal Defense Fund to hire staff, bring in attorneys and train Vermont lawyers to handle immigration cases.Martin Diaz formerly taught immigration law at Vermont Law and Graduate School, directed its Center for Justice Reform Clinic and practiced at Vermont Legal Aid. They currently are a lecturer in the department of social work at the University of Vermont. In 2023, Martin Diaz was named by the LGBTQ+ Bar Association as one of the 40 best LGBTQ+ lawyers under 40.I visited VAAP's headquarters in Burlington, where I interviewed Martin Diaz, staff attorney Leah Brenner and volunteer staff attorney Andy Pelcher.“I'm looking around at our office that's not even unpacked and we barely have lights and WiFi. How are we holding our own against Trump's Department of Justice that just got a big, beautiful raise?” marveled Martin Diaz, who described fighting the Trump administration as akin to David vs. Goliath.Martin Diaz said that immigrants are “canaries in the coal mine.”“People are really starting to look at what's going on in the immigration system as a microcosm for what could happen to our democracy if left unchecked, not just for noncitizens, but for everyone.”Pelcher, who graduated Vermont Law and Graduate School in 2018 and went on to get an LLM, or master of laws, described a recent visit to Northwest State Correctional Facility in St. Albans, where he encountered a Palestinian man who was a survivor of torture who “had been bounced around to a number of facilities during the 14 months that he had been detained.” Somehow he landed in a Vermont jail. “People are being frequently transferred from facility to facility, seemingly as a means to deny access to counsel, family, local networks of support, and any other means by which these individuals can meaningfully prepare for their defense against removal,” said Pelcher. VAAP, together with the Association of Africans Living in Vermont, took on the man's case.VAAP's experience finding and aiding immigrants in Vermont's jails has led Martin Diaz to oppose the idea of closing Vermont's jails to ICE. “I would not advocate for more beds, but I would also strongly caution against a wholesale end to ICE's ability to detain people in our state,” they said. “The truth is that there is no substitute for lawyers getting in their cars, going to a facility with our bodies and meeting one on one in private with our clients directly.”“It's really, really difficult to provide people with legal help telephonically, when the people who have your clients in custody have no respect for the rule of law and for individuals rights.”Is America's legal system up to the task of defending rights and institutions in the Trump era?“I do have hope that the rule of law will prevail and that this horrible, horrible, tragic moment in our history, this painful moment for our community members who are being directly impacted, can also be a galvanizing opportunity for us to rethink what do we want our laws to say? What do we want due process to look like? What checks and balances do we want?” said Martin Diaz.
We all face giants—fear, doubt, overwhelming circumstances—that seem too big to conquer. In this episode of Tea Time with Just Rosie Moore, I share encouragement from the story of David and Goliath, reminding us that no obstacle is greater than God's power.I also open up about a personal miracle: when my son Kaleb was just three years old, we were told he would need medication for life and might end up in an institution. But we chose to walk out of that office in faith, believing God had a greater plan. Today, Kaleb's life is living proof that miracles still happen.If you're standing before a giant right now, let this message remind you that with God, victory is possible
Pastor Kelly Soiles encourages us to face overwhelming challenges by relying on Christ's strength, pointing to David and Goliath and the power of trusted community. We're reminded we're not meant to battle alone and that God's power works in and through us.

We all face giants in life - those seemingly insurmountable obstacles standing between us and God's plan. These giants are formidable and intimidating, using fear to keep us from the battlefield. To defeat these giants, we need three key characteristics: tenacity to persist despite criticism, testimony that builds confidence from past victories, and a target focused on God's glory rather than just personal victory. David demonstrated all three when facing Goliath, refusing to be discouraged by negative voices, drawing strength from previous battles with lions and bears, and fighting so that everyone would know that Israel has a God. Remember that the battle belongs to the Lord - your giant, regardless of its size, fits in the hand of your God.
Today we once again have the honor of sitting down with The Quad Fathers—Michael Vaill and Tanner Wanish. The last time I spoke with them, they had just wrapped up their legendary Yosemite Quad. But little did we know, on the descent from Half Dome they were already scheming their next big objective: The Goliath Traverse. To give you a sense of scale, let's break this thing down. The Goliath Traverse is a south-to-north, ridge link-up of two of the biggest traverses in the Sierra Nevada.The first is The Full Monty—a notoriously difficult 16-mile traverse of technical rock and mountaineering terrain. It involves 5.10 climbing, horrendous rock quality, immense exposure, and extreme endurance. It extends the already burly Full Palisade Traverse and by itself is a career-defining objective.The second half is The Full Evolution Crest, running from Bishop Pass to Piute Pass it involves miles of alpine rock, climbing up to 5.10, countless peaks over 13,000 feet, endless elevation gain and loss, and complex route-finding. First completed over eight days in 2008 by Scott McCook and Kyle Sox.Now imagine linking both of those together; that's The Goliath Traverse. At 32 miles of climbing, more than 60 summits, nearly 50,000 feet of vertical gain, it is considered the longest technical ridge traverse in the Western Hemisphere. It was first completed in 2021 by Vitaliy Musiyenko in a solo, unsupported, alpine-style push over just eight days—no caches, no partners, no support. Just Vitaliy, his mind, and the mountains.In today's conversation, we begin with a harrowing story from Tanner and Michael's preparation trip to the Alps—a reminder of just how dangerous and unpredictable the mountains can be. When I say these two are lucky to be alive, it's no exaggeration. At moments, it felt like I was talking to ghosts of fallen mountain athletes.We then dive into their successful second ascent of The Goliath, and how the experience has reshaped the way they're setting goals in the mountains—at least for now.After his first ascent in 2021, Vitaliy reflected, “It didn't feel like I had conquered Goliath…I had merely survived him.” As you'll hear, Tanner and Michael would come to understand just how accurate that statement really was.Watch The Climbing Majority on Youtube---Thanks to our sponsor!LIVSN DesignsCheckout their Ecotrek Overalls HEREUse Code "TCM15" At Checkout for 15% OFF Your Order---Get Access to Exclusive Episodes, Unlock Ad-Free Podcast, & MORE!---ResourcesTanner's IGMichael's IGVitaly's FA Goliath Write Up---We were recently rated #3 Top Climbing Podcast!

Most of us think our biggest struggles are external, money, relationships, career; but scripture reminds us that the real battle is spiritual, unseen, and internal. Just like David faced Goliath, we must confront rejection, fear, doubt, and intimidation before we ever face the giants in front of us. In this message, we'll uncover why you're not the underdog when you're under God, how to stop betting against yourself, and how to fight from a place of faith so you can step into real victory.
Discouragement is the slow erosion of expecting God's goodness. It doesn't shout. It whispers. It seeps in slowly--until your faith is drenched in doubt and uncertainty. In 1 Samuel 17, David faced the ultimate opponent in Goliath. But before he ever stepped onto the battlefield, he had to overcome another giant: the voice of discouragement. That same voice is speaking to you, but it can be silenced. Discover how to grow in courage in this week's message!

Everyone faces giants in life - unexpected illness, financial turmoil, relationship struggles, or personal attacks. The story of David and Goliath teaches us that God uses underdogs to accomplish His purposes. David wasn't qualified on paper, but he understood that his past victories over lions and bears had prepared him for this moment. Most importantly, David saw Goliath not as his problem but as God's problem. When we face our own giants, we must remember that our challenges are opportunities for God to work miracles. If we won't step up in faith, God will find someone else who will.
Fear is loud, but faith is louder. The enemy uses intimidation to paralyze us with doubt, making his power seem bigger than it really is, just like Goliath. But Jesus is the ultimate authority, and when we stand in Him, we don't have to be preyed on by fear. Instead, we rise as Kingdom Intimidators, boldly advancing God's kingdom with truth, peace, and clarity. This message will help you call out the tactics of intimidation, claim your Kingdom authority, and step into your true identity as a child of God. Perfect love drives out fear, and with Jesus, you're not easily intimidated, you're empowered to prevail.
Remember the successes This sermon on 1 Samuel 17 reminds listeners that the story of David and Goliath is ultimately about God's faithfulness and strength, not human power. Goliath's daily taunts instilled fear in Israel, showing how the enemy uses repetition to sow doubt and intimidation. David, arriving humbly with food for his brothers, demonstrates a heart fixed on God rather than fear of the giant. His confidence came from remembering God's past deliverance, not his own skill, and he recognized that Goliath's defiance was against the living God. The message challenges us to guard what we allow into our hearts, to be prepared for spiritual battles at any moment, and to trust God as our true champion who delivers His people in His timing.
A God of Justice | Josh Sperry | Life Center Tacoma David was ANOINTED long before he was APPOINTED. God was shaping him in private before using him in public. Justice: Making things right according to God's character and design. Injustice: The abuse of power, the neglect of the vulnerable, or the failure to act when wrong is done. Psalms 89:11-14 (NIV) 1 Samuel 17:26 (NLT) Justice begins with seeing clearly David sees what others can't or won't, the vulnerable and the hurting [Ansel Adams Photo] "I just want people to see what I see" -Ansel Adams What cause is the Lord calling you to stand for? Justice is rooted in God's character, not human strength 1 Samuel 17:32-37 (NIV) Justice doesn't come from having power - it comes from knowing the God who defends the powerless. Injustice, by contrast, is always about power misused. Justice confronts evil courageously 1 Samuel 17:45-50 (NIV) Justice happens when ordinary people walk into hard places because they know God walks with them. Justice brings freedom and writes a larger story What is your cause? Are you willing? What are Goliath is standing in your way today? Are you willing to see what others are not? What is my something? How can you trust in God's character over your own strength?
Fear is loud, but faith is louder. The enemy uses intimidation to paralyze us with doubt, making his power seem bigger than it really is, just like Goliath. But Jesus is the ultimate authority, and when we stand in Him, we don't have to be preyed on by fear. Instead, we rise as Kingdom Intimidators, boldly advancing God's kingdom with truth, peace, and clarity. This message will help you call out the tactics of intimidation, claim your Kingdom authority, and step into your true identity as a child of God.

We are not living in neutral times—we are living in a war zone. Culture is confused, truth is attacked, evil is celebrated, and the enemy is working overtime to distract and divide. But Scripture makes it clear: this isn't a battle against flesh and blood—it's a spiritual war.In Ephesians 6, Paul calls us to “put on the full armor of God.” This is not a comfort gospel—it's a combat gospel. The good news? We don't fight for victory, we fight from victory, because Jesus has already disarmed the enemy at the cross (Colossians 2:15).Here are the four key truths we walked through:1. Know the Enemy The real battle isn't against people—it's against the powers of darkness (Eph. 6:12). The enemy's strategy is distraction, division, and deception. If you don't know who you're fighting, you'll fight the wrong battles.2. Know Who You Fight For We don't fight in our own strength, but in God's authority. Like David, who faced Goliath “in the name of the Lord of hosts,” we step into battles knowing the Lion has already roared. (Exodus 14:14; Romans 8:31)3. Gear Up – With Your Armor You can't fight with someone else's armor. Just as David couldn't wear Saul's armor, you can't live off borrowed faith or borrowed obedience. Walk in your own daily discipline, your own salvation, your own prayer life. (Eph. 6:13–17; 1 Sam. 17:38–40)4. Stand – Don't Stand By Israel stood frozen before Goliath for forty days. David stood up and declared: “The battle is the Lord's” (1 Sam. 17:45–47). Too often we “stand by” while the enemy mocks. God is calling us to stand up, suit up, and speak up in His authority.
In this powerful message, discover how to stop measuring your life by others' experiences and start walking in the unlimited power of God. Learn from David's victory over Goliath how to think for yourself, choose the tools God has already placed in your hands, and run toward your challenges instead of shrinking back. Pastor Maurice reveals why submission to authority is protection—not control—and when to stop waiting and start declaring victory with your words. Every day is a fresh opportunity to resist the enemy, break through stubborn obstacles, and cut the head off every giant that stands in your way Join us every Sunday at 11 AM for a powerful time of worship, teaching, and community.

Nathan Apffel is a Christian, filmmaker, entrepreneur, and director of The Religion Business, a multi-part docuseries that exposes the financial practices and lack of accountability in Western religion, particularly Christianity. Drawing from personal experiences with church scandals and abuse, Apffel investigates how religious institutions accumulate vast wealth, estimated at $2 trillion in the U.S. alone, while often prioritizing internal spending over community impact, with 94 cents of every donated dollar staying within church walls. Co-produced with Chris Ayoub, the series features interviews with experts like Joel Osteen and highlights issues like the religious exemption from financial reporting. Apffel is developing tech solutions to promote transparency and community-driven reform in religious organizations. He advocates for ethical governance, victim support, and redirecting resources to solve global issues like poverty and homelessness. Based in the U.S., Apffel blends storytelling, technology, and faith to challenge the status quo and foster meaningful change in the "nonprofit Goliath" of organized religion.

Tonight on Steel News with Ann Vandersteel we expose how the IRS, DOJ, and judiciary operate not as constitutional institutions of justice but as corrupt cartels under a RICO structure. Former IRS Criminal Investigation agent Joseph Banister blew the whistle on the so-called “1040A Scam”—a scheme where the IRS fabricates phantom 1040A returns in its computer systems to justify assessments, liens, and seizures against ordinary Americans who never filed them.Now, Ebenezer “Ben” Howe brings the living proof in his federal forfeiture case. With evidence from IRS transcripts, DOJ discovery admissions, and official certifications, Ben shows the government falsified every IRS record concerning him for eight tax years. Joining him are Michael Ellis, a teacher of law, history, and faith, and Robert “Bob” McNeil, a Marine veteran and lifelong auditor, who together form a team of modern Davids fighting the Goliath of government fraud.Presented in partnership with: American Made Foundation & American Made Actionhttps://AmericanMadeFoundation.orghttps://AmericanMadeAction.orgFollow: ANN VANDERSTEEL https://AnnVandersteel.comFollow Ann Vandersteel on Pickax - https://pickax.com/annvandersteel
This episode unpacks David vs. Goliath, revealing courage, faith, and how the story points to Jesus as the ultimate victor over sin and death.
Garth Heckman The David Alliance TDAgiantSlayer@Gmail.com Absolutely — let's build a complete definition of jealousy by pulling together the different angles from Scripture, psychology, and language: Definition of Jealousy 1. General / Dictionary Sense Jealousy is a feeling of resentment, bitterness, or insecurity that arises when we perceive a threat to something we value—such as a relationship, possession, status, or recognition. It often involves fear of loss and resentment toward others who have what we desire. 2. Biblical Sense The Bible uses jealousy in two distinct ways: Sinful Human Jealousy (envy, rivalry): * Wanting what someone else has. * Resenting their success, blessings, or relationships. * Leads to anger, strife, and destructive actions (James 3:16; Galatians 5:20). Righteous Divine Jealousy (protective love):** God's passionate commitment to His people and His own glory. Not born out of insecurity, but out of covenant love and holiness (Exodus 34:14; 2 Corinthians 11:2). Like a husband's rightful desire for his wife's faithfulness. 3. Psychological Understanding - or breaking it down in the brain Jealousy is often a complex emotion made up of: Fear (of being replaced, overlooked, or abandoned). Anger/resentment (toward the one we feel threatened by). Insecurity (about our own worth or position). Unlike envy (wanting what someone else has), jealousy often involves a triangular relationship: Me, the other person, and the rival/threat or appearance of what I lack. 4. Key Distinctions Envy = “I want what you have.” Jealousy = “I'm afraid you'll take what I have” or “I resent you for threatening my place (i.e. I don't measure up to you).” God's Jealousy = “I will not allow you to give your love to idols because I love you and know what's best for you.” Romans 12:15 Rejoice with those who rejoice and mourn with those who mourn. Jealousy keeps us from doing both. Rejoice? But I don't have that! Mourn? No they deserve to suffer, because I have had to suffer. But here is what is weird… when we rejoice over those who are succeeding, being blessed, hitting goals, achieving greatness… when we rejoice with them in that we are planting seeds of their success into our lives. If we truly reap what we sow… then when we rejoice with others we in turn have just planted seeds-IN FAITH- for the day people will rejoice over our success. So here is the power thought for the day. We don't just sow money, time talents… we sow emotions. If the emotions we choose to sow are positive we will reap the benefits of that… but if they are negative towards people… well, I bet you can figure it out. --- ✅ **Complete Definition (Combined):** **Jealousy** is an intense emotional response that can be either sinful or righteous. In its sinful form, it is a self-centered resentment or hostility toward others because of their advantages, relationships, or blessings, often leading to strife and destruction. In its righteous form—used of God—it is His holy, protective zeal for the exclusive devotion of His people and the honor of His name, rooted not in insecurity but in perfect love and covenant faithfulness. That's a really thoughtful question. The Bible treats **jealousy** as dangerous and destructive, but the reason why depends on how the word is used in Scripture. Let's break it down: --- 1. Jealousy as a Sin (Human Jealousy)** Most often, the Bible speaks of jealousy in the sense of **envy, rivalry, or coveting what others have**. This is why it's seen as evil: It leads to division and strife.** *“For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every vile practice.”* (James 3:16) Jealousy doesn't just stay internal—it spills out into conflict and chaos. It comes from pride and insecurity.** Jealousy says, “What God gave me is not enough; I deserve what you have.” That challenges God's wisdom and provision. It destroys relationships.** Cain killed Abel out of jealousy (Genesis 4:3–8). Saul tried to kill David because “Saul was very angry … ‘They have ascribed to David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed thousands'” (1 Samuel 18:7–9). It is linked with the “works of the flesh.”** Galatians 5:20–21 lists jealousy along with fits of anger, rivalries, and envy as things that keep people from inheriting the kingdom of God. 2. God's “Jealousy” (a Different Kind)** At the same time, Scripture also describes God as *jealous* (Exodus 34:14; Deuteronomy 4:24). But this isn't the same as sinful human jealousy. * God's jealousy is about **protective love**. He won't share His people with idols because He knows only He can satisfy them. * It's like a loving husband's jealousy for his wife's faithfulness—not rooted in insecurity, but in covenant love. 3. **Why Human Jealousy Is So Evil** So the Bible condemns human jealousy because: * It **springs from self-centeredness** rather than love. * It **questions God's goodness** and fairness. * It **tears communities apart** instead of building them up. * It is the **opposite of love**, which “does not envy” (1 Corinthians 13:4). In short: **God's jealousy protects love, but our jealousy destroys it.** Perfect — here are some of the clearest **biblical stories where jealousy led to disaster**: --- ### **1. Cain and Abel (Genesis 4:3–8)** * **What happened:** God accepted Abel's offering but not Cain's. Cain became jealous and murdered his brother. * **Lesson:** Jealousy escalated into anger, bitterness, and ultimately the first murder in human history. --- ### **2. Joseph and His Brothers (Genesis 37:3–28)** * **What happened:** Jacob favored Joseph, giving him the “coat of many colors.” His brothers became jealous of his dreams and sold him into slavery. * **Lesson:** Jealousy within a family destroyed trust and nearly killed Joseph. --- ### **3. Korah's Rebellion (Numbers 16:1–35)** * **What happened:** Korah and his followers were jealous of Moses and Aaron's leadership. They challenged God's choice and were swallowed up by the earth. * **Lesson:** Jealousy against God's appointed leaders is ultimately rebellion against God Himself. --- ### **4. Saul and David (1 Samuel 18:6–16; 19:8–10)** * **What happened:** After David killed Goliath, people praised him more than King Saul. Saul grew jealous and tried multiple times to kill David. * **Lesson:** Jealousy blinded Saul to David's loyalty and destroyed his kingship. --- ### **5. The Religious Leaders and Jesus (Mark 15:10; Matthew 27:18)** * **What happened:** Pilate recognized that the religious leaders handed Jesus over to be crucified **out of envy/jealousy.** * **Lesson:** Jealousy of Jesus' influence and authority led to the ultimate injustice—His crucifixion. --- ### **6. The Pharisees and the Apostles (Acts 5:17; 13:45)** * **What happened:** The high priest and Sadducees were jealous of the apostles' popularity and miracles, so they persecuted them. Later, the Jews in Antioch opposed Paul out of jealousy when Gentiles responded to the gospel. * **Lesson:** Jealousy can oppose the very work of God. ---

In this episode, Dr. Leelo Bush explores how to replace fleeting self-confidence with lasting Godfidence. Through scripture, testimony, and coaching stories, she shows how confidence built on God's truth becomes steady, unshakable, and contagious. What You'll Learn Why confidence is not a personality trait but a skill and a choice for believers. The difference between the world's confidence and God-centered confidence. How to replace self-doubt with agreement on God's promises. Daily practices to grow Godfidence. How to impart lasting confidence to others and build a faith-filled community. Quotable Moment “The world's confidence will tell you, ‘You can do it if you believe in yourself.' Godfidence says, ‘You can do it because you believe in Him.'” Scriptures Mentioned Hebrews 10:35 – “So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded.” 1 Samuel 17 – David and Goliath, confidence rooted in God's presence Resources Courses & Certifications at PCCCA – https://pccca.org/courses The Comprehensive Christian Coach Handbook (Amazon link) – https://amzn.to/4mo5ra4 Healing the Grieving Brain Guide – https://griefcoachu.com/healing/ Courageous Christian Coaching Tribe (Facebook group) – https://facebook.com/groups/courageouschristiancoachingtribe Transcript Have you ever walked into a room feeling great about yourself? And then one glance from someone made you shrink inside? Or maybe you've had the opposite happen where something clicked deep inside you and suddenly you felt unstoppable. What if you could have that kind of confidence every single day? The kind that no one and nothing could shake. Today we're talking about exactly that. And I call it Godfidence. If you've ever wished that you could have unshakable, lasting confidence, the kind that doesn't crumble the moment someone gives you a funny look, you're in the right place. Today we're talking about a very specific kind of confidence—God-given confidence. I like to call it Godfidence. I don't remember where it came from, but if it's not in the dictionary, it should be. And unlike the confidence the world gives, this one won't vanish when the circumstances change. Welcome to the Christian Coaching School podcast. I'm your host, Dr. Leelo Bush. I'm a master coach, author, curriculum creator, and the number one authority on Spirit-led Christian coaching. I've trained tens of thousands worldwide since 2003, and if you are ready to uplevel your skills, find greater fulfillment, and employ the most powerful coaching available to mankind, let's go. Welcome back, my friends. I am so glad you're here today because we're diving into one of the biggest struggles I hear from people, especially believers. They'll say, “I just wish I felt more confident.” Some people think confidence is a personality type. You're either born with it or you're not. Others think it's about accomplishments—that once they've achieved a certain goal, then they'll feel confident. But what if I told you that real, lasting confidence doesn't come from either of those things? The truth is confidence that lasts—the kind that can weather storms and setbacks—is built on something the world can't give you and can't take away. And once you have it, you can pass it on to others. Confidence isn't just about feeling good about yourself. It's about stepping into what God has called you to do without being paralyzed by fear or doubt. Hebrews 10:35 says, “So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded.” When you know God has called you, confidence allows you to move forward even when you can't see the whole path. Society's version of confidence says you're awesome because you're beautiful, smart, or successful. God's version says you're equipped because I am with you. The world's confidence is like a helium balloon. It's fun while it's floating. But one sharp word from someone and—pop—it's gone. God's confidence is more like a deep-rooted oak tree. The winds can blow, the rains can pour, but you're still standing because your roots are anchored in His truth. Let's clear up another myth. Confidence is not a personality trait. It's not a case of some people have it and some people don't. It's a skill. And for the believer, it's also a choice. Think about David in the Bible. When he faced Goliath, he wasn't confident because he had the whole army behind him. In fact, they were hiding. He wasn't confident because he was the tallest, strongest warrior. He was confident because he knew God was with him, and that made all the difference. If your confidence is based on how well you did last time, how many people approve of you, or whether life is going smoothly, it will always be shaky. But when it's built on what God says about you—that you were chosen, you are loved, and you are equipped—it becomes steady. And here's the test: if your confidence disappears when circumstances change, it's fleeting. If it remains when things go wrong, it's lasting. Fleeting confidence says, “I nailed that presentation, so I feel good about myself.” Lasting confidence says, “Even if I stumble through this presentation, my worth and calling haven't changed.” The confidence the world offers is like an energy drink. It gives you a quick boost, but then you crash. God's confidence is living water. It keeps renewing and sustaining you. I remember a time early in my career when I was invited to present to a large group of community leaders. It was a big opportunity, and of course I wanted to make a strong impression. Right before I went up to speak, someone leaned over and whispered, “You know, these people are used to hearing from nationally known speakers. You might want to keep your talk short.” My first reaction—my stomach dropped. That little voice of doubt tried to tell me, “You're not qualified to be here.” But then I took a deep breath, silently prayed, “Lord, this is Your message, not mine,” and walked up with my head held high. The moment I started speaking, peace came over me. I knew I wasn't standing there in my own strength, and my words rolled out of me like I was a pro. It was like I was there in body, but someone else was controlling my message that day. It wasn't my polished words that made an impact—it was God's presence. And that's when I realized: when your confidence comes from Him, nobody can take it away. You might have heard this referred to as an anointing. And speaking of stepping into what God's called you to do, this is exactly why I am so passionate about equipping more Christians to serve with confidence in their calling.

You can find all the details and enroll today at PCCCA.org/courses. Let's get you trained, certified, and ready to make an even greater Kingdom impact. So how do you shift from self-doubt to Godfidence? It starts with agreement—agreeing with what God says about you, even if your feelings haven't caught up yet. Instead of saying, “What if I fail?” you start saying, “If God called me to this, He'll equip me for it.” Instead of thinking, “I'm not good enough,” you remind yourself, “In Christ I am more than enough for this moment.” Confidence is not arrogance. Arrogance says, “I'm better than you.” Godfidence says, “I'm secure in who I am, and you're amazing too.” For me, Godfidence grows when I go back to my source. Daily time in the Word keeps my mind renewed because what we believe shapes everything. I also practice taking baby bold steps. Every time I say yes to God, even in something small, it builds my trust. I don't entertain self-doubt like it's a welcome houseguest. I speak life over myself and over others because words create belief. And I make it a habit to remember what God has already done in my life—because His track record is perfect. And here's the beautiful part: we're not meant to keep Godfidence to ourselves. I remember coaching a young woman who had such a powerful testimony but was terrified to share it. She told me she was not a speaker and she didn't know what to say. I looked her straight in the eye and said, “This isn't about being a speaker. It's about being obedient.” We worked together on a short version of her story, prayed before she went on stage, and I watched as she stepped up with shaking hands. And then the Spirit took over. The response she got that night was overwhelming. People came up in tears thanking her for her courage. Later she told me, “If you hadn't believed in me, I wouldn't have been able to do it.” But what I really wanted her to see was that it wasn't my belief that mattered—it was God's. And that's the power of imparting Godfidence, friend. The world's confidence will tell you, “You can do it if you believe in yourself.” Godfidence says, “You can do it because you believe in Him.” You don't have to wait until you feel ready, because with God, you already are. And when you live in this kind of confidence, it doesn't just change your life—it's contagious. People around you start to rise too. So this week, take one step that scares you just a little, but do it with the full assurance that God is with you. And if you see someone else shrinking back, speak courage into them. Pass it on. That's how we build a confident, faith-filled community. I'm Dr. Leelo Bush, and you've been listening to the Christian Coaching School podcast. Carry what you learned today into the lives of those who need it most. And I'll meet you in the next episode.

The world we live in is filled with negativity, despair, and hopelessness. However, studying the Bible reveals to us how we can experience victory despite what's going on around us. In the Old Testament, David the young shepherd provided a strong example of how to overcome challenges. Despite the fear around him when Goliath showed up, David never gave up hope; he faced a giant much bigger than himself and slew him. Our strength lies in spending time with God; hearing directly from Him in the midst of the situation causes us to prevail.
