Send us a textFinishing up this batch of Profiles In Courage episodes, we are looking at Paul.  In Acts 16:16-40, Paul and Silas have an encounter in Philippi that leads to them being beaten and thrown into prison.  As we observe the reasoning behind their imprisonment, we can easily see why this was unfair and unjust.  Yet Paul praised God while he was in jail.  During that time at midnight, God sends an earthquake and the prison doors fly open.  Long story short, Paul's obedience to the Lord leads to the conversion of the jailer and his entire family.  Through this passage, we learn that sometimes tough things come even we are obedient to the Lord.  But through those circumstances we must and should still praise.  As we do, we see God is faithful and walks with us through the trials we face.  I hope you will be blessed with this episode and encouraged to go back and listen to this entire series from these past few weeks.  Feel free to reach out:  info@derekcharlesjohnson.com

Send us a textNow when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated, common men, they were astonished. And they recognized that they had been with Jesus.  Acts 4:13As we move into the New Testament and look at Peter this week and Paul next week, we see boldness in both men in the pages of Acts.  After Christ's ascension, there is something that takes place within Peter.  It is apparent through the first few chapters as he preaches and addresses various crowds:  from those gathered at Pentecost, to those after the healing of the lame beggar, to the ruling council of Sadducees.  In each instance, Peter's boldness leads him to share the Gospel and to connect this same Jesus with prophecy as a fulfillment of the Scripture.  Peter's boldness can and should become our boldness.  In a world which needs to hear, are we taking the truth with us into the settings we're in each day?   Listen to:  Jesus & Peter - Prior To/Following The Crucifixion (ENCOUNTERS) https://www.buzzsprout.com/admin/1663204/episodes/8520597-jesus-peter-prior-to-following-the-crucifixion-encounters

Send us a textContinuing on in our Profiles In Courage series, we are looking at Daniel. Specifically, we are looking at Daniel 6 -- the famous "Daniel in the lion's den" account.  Daniel was a man who was willing to defy governmental orders in order to obey his God.  The fact that he ends up in the lion's den attests to his own refusal to bow to man over God.  In the process, he gives all praise and glory to God when he is found alive and well after a night with the lions.  In this, his stand for God is something the King takes and pronounces to his entire kingdom:  the God of Daniel....He is the living God, enduring forever (Daniel 6:26).  What might our stand for God look like in the end?  If we are saved from the lions as Daniel was, we give glory to God.  If we face martyrdom like Stephen in Acts, we give glory to God.  Either way, the Gospel goes forth and God is praised!

Send us a textRebooting a series that debuted in 2021, this week we are looking at Abraham and the path he took as he courageously obeyed his God.  Our text comes from Genesis 22, the retelling of Abraham's sacrifice of his son Isaac.  Isaac was the promised heir and the one through which God would make Abraham a mighty nation.  In choosing to follow the Lord, Abraham shows an outward obedience despite any inward hesitation he may have felt. He shows that God brings provision through our obedience.  Finally, God does not forget His promise to Abraham and makes good on all He said He would do.  We know the names of these Profiles In Courage, these heroes of the faith, because they stepped out.  If they had refused, their account would not have made it into the Biblical record.  But because we know their names and their stories, we can take heart.  God goes with us and before us into the steps of faith we must take.

Through our fears, we see what we think the outcome will be instead of the the outcome God has planned for us. However, when we look at the story of Joshua and Caleb we see that we can always trust in God's presence and direction.

In week two of our series Profiles in Courage, we are talking about how the commitment to follow Jesus will give us courage. What is something you need the courage to get through? How can you let God help guide you through that situation? The reality is, there is a good chance you are challenged by things in life that you aren't meant to do alone. For example, what happens when you are challenged to do the right things? When the outside temptation becomes too big for you. The world we live in today can sometimes be hard to take on by yourself.But, when you let your faith and your commitment to Jesus be a reminder of what you believe, you can do the right thing. Maybe there was a scenario in the past where you did not stand up for what you believed in. Well, you are not alone. All of us are fighting against the temptation and FOR the mission God wants for us.What is one way that you can stand up for what's right?

Agatha Halekulani Kerr, a mom of two, with a full-time job, recently logged over 175 miles in 100 hours at the Jackalope Jam. The distance was achieved by running a 1.5-mile loop (.75 out and .75 back) on a grass-and-gravel ranch road. Two months earlier, she got in 125.66 miles in 55 hours at the Snowdrop Ultra. She is one of the humblest and most supportive runners I know. She is now the head coach for the San Antonio Off-Road Runners and has been a mentor and assistant coach before that.

Finishing out the Profiles In Courage series, we are looking at 1 Kings 18 and the encounter of Elijah with the prophets of Baal on Mt. Carmel.  This interaction is a glimpse into the faith of one of the Old Testament's most notable prophets.  Yet the Book of James reminds us "Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed fervently that it might not rain, and for three years and six months it did not rain on the earth." (James 5:17)  As much as we may think Elijah was a super-human believer, he really had a nature just like ours.  Because of this, we can know that our faith in God to do the miraculous can and should be just like Elijah's.  The God who intervened on Elijah's behalf still moves on our behalf.  Elijah's faith didn't question the odds, he drew a line in the sand (trust God or not), and his obedience put God on display.

An interesting profile in courage in the New Testament is John the Baptist.  John is not a character we see for too long.  But his mission is clear:  he is to prepare the way for the Messiah.  In so doing, he called people to a baptism of repentance...of readying one's heart.  He was bold in his approach; so much so that he offended the religious leaders of his day.  But he did not shy away from pointing out their hypocrisy.  The same opponents he faced would be the ones Jesus would face.  Today's profile encourages us to be bold in Christ and to persevere, no matter the circumstances.  It can often be tempting to play it safe and not speak out for fear of opposition or rejection.  But John the Baptist feared none of these things and as a result, his ministry was blessed.  Let us be so bold as well today!

In this relaunch of a series introduced last year, we are looking this episode at Noah.  Noah may seem like this larger than life character in the Bible.  An ark, a flood, a rainbow, and a charge to repopulate and fill the Earth.  It is popular in some circles to dismiss some Old Testament Bible stories (like Noah) as mere mythological fantasies.  Stories that became tall tales, but didn't actually happen.  But consider if Noah actually did happen and that his context wasn't so different than what we experience today.  A man righteous before God but living amongst wicked people.  A man obedient to God to build and ark and prepare...for what was next.  A man who was rewarded for his obedience by the Lord by being shut in the ark, just him and his family.  There's a lot we can learn from Noah as we live in a time that looks a lot like his day.  Wickedness and a growing apathy or even opposition to Godly things are all around us.  Noah is a bold man and another profile in courage worth our examination today.

“Pardon me, my lord,” Gideon replied, “but how can I save Israel? My clan is the weakest in Manasseh, and I am the least in my family.”  Judges 6:15The story of Gideon is a compelling one for anyone ever confronted with feeling inadequate or undeserving to follow God's call.  Gideon is an unlikely choice as a leader of God's people but God sees the potential in him before he sees it in himself.  Through the process, Gideon finds confirmation of God's call to lead Israel against the Midianites.  And in the end the battle is fought God's way; through His means and timing.  There are many takeaways from this story...things that are important for all of us to remember as we step out in faith.  God sees the potential in us when He calls us.  He is faithful to lead us out of our fear and into boldness.  And He gives us the tools to use as He takes us through the battles we face.  Listen and be encouraged today as Derek and Corrie lead off this new series of "Profiles In Courage."

A true profile in courage, Esther is the story of a Jewish girl who became Queen over Persia and was God's instrument to save her people.  If you've read the story, you know the almost "Hollywood-like" sequence of events.  There's good vs. evil in the narrative of Mordecai and Haman.   There's the unlikely rise to queen by Hadassah; who becomes Esther.  And there's God's providence through it all...knowing there was a plan in place and He used simple, obedient people to usher it in.  What about us?  Do we read a story like Esther and then close the book and walk away leaving unchanged?  That same God who used Esther uses people like you and I today.  He is still looking for those who will take stand and rise up "for such a time as this."  This last profile in this series is critical:  will we acknowledge the weight of the times we live in AND will we be obedient to what God is asking us to do?

As the first martyr of the early church, we see a unique boldness in the character of Stephen.  He is a man full of the Holy Spirit.  He has a wisdom that cannot be argued with since he speaks the truth about Jesus.  Still, he came up against an authority that did not like what he was saying -- true or not.  The Jewish leaders brought him up on false charges, held a sham trial, and hauled him out to execute him by stoning.  We don't like to think much about persecution but it has become a reality for many in our world...and it's only growing across many places.  In the United States, we realize that our freedoms to worship and preach the Gospel may not always be guaranteed.  Are we prepared to stand up and speak out even if it is unpopular with the ruling authorities?  We must make that decision now, long before we are ever in a place where our lives could be asked of us.

Another profile that is worth consideration is Joseph.  Perhaps the path of Joseph's life would not have been the one he would pick if given the choice.  Most of us would rather not endure the suffering that Joseph went through.  Sold into slavery as a young man and abandoned by his brothers, Joseph started at the lowest place possible.  Still, God's favor was upon him and he was given the opportunity to advance.  When we pick up the story of Joseph in this episode, he is being summoned by Pharaoh to interpret a dream.  Joseph's whole life changes because of this one moment.  He was patient to wait for this opportunity and he did not take any of the glory/credit for himself.  He pointed to the Lord as the one Who interprets dreams and provides the knowledge and understanding needed.  We learn from Joseph the importance of waiting on God's timing and abiding in Him, despite the unknowns we face. As we do, we experience the same type of blessings that Joseph had.  We see God as the source of our strength and hope while we walk through hidden years.

We are starting a 4 week podcast series on PROFILES IN COURAGE; Bible characters that we can draw strength from as we examine how they lived in a moment of time that challenged their faith.  The opposition we face in this world:  trials, tests, and persecution...none of them are new.  The tried and true stories of the Bible (David and Goliath, Daniel in the lion's den, Noah and the flood, and others) all show us how to conduct ourselves in the midst of a world or culture opposed to the things of God. This week we take a look at David and his encounter with the giant Goliath.  Even though we have heard this story perhaps dozens of times, it is always good to go back and remind ourselves again.  David was confident in his God.  He stood up against the odds even when the rest of his countrymen did not because of fear.  He fought for the sake of the name of his God.  We must stand up today and be bold as well...Christ and the Holy Spirit lead us into boldness.  It is always worth it!

In 1955, John F. Kennedy wrote, "Profiles in Courage." This was a book about American men who largely failed in the short term but who succeeded for their country because of their courage to do the right things for the right reasons--to preserve American democracy. I share some important passages about what these men thought and what they went through so that we may be here today, yes bruised and battered, but we are still Americans. *Speech Citation: "Physical Fitness Statement" by President John F. Kennedy on March 30, 1962.
