What does it mean to be truly bold for Christ? Through the compelling story of four desperate lepers in 2 Kings 7, we discover that boldness isn't about having perfect qualifications or circumstances—it's about being willing to move when God calls.These outcasts, sitting outside the gates of a starving city, faced certain death whether they stayed put or returned to Samaria. In their moment of desperation, they asked themselves a transformative question: "Why should we sit here waiting to die?" Their decision to approach the enemy camp led them to discover that God had already cleared the way—the Aramean army had fled, leaving behind everything needed to save the city. When they initially began hoarding their newfound treasures, they realized: "This is a day of good news and we aren't sharing it with anyone."The power of this ancient story perfectly parallels the mission work being supported by our church, particularly in Cuba where missionaries demonstrate extraordinary boldness despite increasingly difficult conditions. For over thirty years, our congregation has supported Cuban Christians who now face 23-hour daily power outages, severe water shortages affecting their ability to perform baptisms, and transportation challenges that make ministry nearly impossible. Yet they continue walking miles daily, knocking on doors, and sharing the gospel with unwavering commitment.This Mission Sunday, we're focusing on practical ways to support boldness in action. The Magi Project allows families to fill shoebox-sized packages with essentials and gifts for children worldwide, while our special offering aims to provide solar generators and transportation for Cuban missionaries. Through these efforts, we join the ancient lepers in their revelation—that good news must be shared, no matter what obstacles stand in our way.Join us in discovering how true boldness isn't about extraordinary courage, but simply being willing to take the first step, trusting that God is already at work, and refusing to keep good news to ourselves.
