Courageous Love
Sep 16, 2025
------------------------------------------
It has been a week since the Charlie Kirk assassination. He was a man of courageous faith.
I’m thinking about this verse in Joshua 1:9, “Be strong and courageous, for the Lord is with you wherever you go.”
What does it mean to be strong and courageous?
It starts at the cross. Jesus laid down His life for us, he took our place, He died for our sins. That is the strongest most courageous thing that has ever been done in our universe, and it came out of love.
How are we to respond?
We believe the truth. We walk in the truth. We stand in the truth. We proclaim truth. We let our lives speak truth. We fight for the truth in love. We live the truth with courageous love.
Jesus IS the truth. (John 14:6)
Truth like Joshua 1:9…. “…for the Lord is with you wherever you go.”
Be strong and courageous!

Thank you Steve, for a beautiful and encouraging reminder in the midst of the shock, horror and grief of losing such a Warrior for God! I appreciate your timely messages and dedication to continue encouraging us in these trying times ~ without Jesus, I can't even imagine where or who I'd be right now...
