Listen "Where Does Courage Come From?"
Episode Synopsis
What if courage doesn’t come from standing alone—but from standing together?In this message from Esther 4:13–17, our Discipleship Director, Matt Fucarino, teaches that courage shows up in community. When Esther faced an impossible choice—to risk her life before the king or remain silent—she didn’t do it alone. God surrounded her with Mordecai and an entire community fasting and praying for her.Even though God’s name isn’t mentioned once in Esther’s story, His presence is everywhere. The same is true for us—His grace meets us right where we are, and His people help us stand when life feels overwhelming.In this sermon, you’ll learn:How courage grows when we walk with othersWhy vulnerability and community go hand in handHow God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary thingsWhy Jesus is the true and better Esther—who risked it all for our rescueWhat it means to find hope, healing, and strength togetherKey Scriptures:- Esther 4:13–17 — “For such a time as this.”- Philippians 3:20 — “We are citizens of heaven.”- 2 Corinthians 5:20 — “We are Christ’s ambassadors.”- Luke 9:23 — “Take up your cross daily and follow Me.”Search Keywords:Esther sermon, courage and community, for such a time as this, Pastor Matt Huff, TNLC sermons, forgotten promises series, finding courage in hard times, God’s purpose in pain, faith and friendship, biblical communityYou might feel far from home—but God has placed you exactly where you can make the biggest difference.Like, Subscribe, and share this message with someone who needs the courage to trust God and lean on community.
