Courage is not the absence of fear — it is faith-fueled action in the face of fear, and this chapter calls men to stop waiting until they feel brave enough and start acting on what they know is right.
Discussion Questions
7 questions1.The Kendricks draw heavily on Joshua 1 — where God commands Joshua to 'be strong and courageous' four times in the span of a few verses. Why do you think God repeated the command so insistently? What does that repetition suggest about Joshua's emotional state?
2.The chapter points out that moral courage — the courage to say the hard thing, take the unpopular stand, or protect someone at personal cost — is increasingly rare. Where in your life do you most need that kind of moral courage right now?
3.Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego told Nebuchadnezzar, 'We will not serve your gods' (Daniel 3:18) — even before they knew whether God would rescue them. The Kendricks call this the posture of courage: obedience before outcomes. Where are you waiting for a guarantee before you will obey?
