I reflect on Joshua 1:9, why courage doesn’t require confidence, and how God often only reveals the next step instead of the entire path.If you’ve ever felt stuck between safety and obedience, this episode is for you. I also challenge you to identify one step of obedience God is asking you to take this week—even if you don’t feel ready.Topics covered:Fear vs. obedience in pursuing your callingLeaving job security to follow God’s directionWhy courage doesn’t mean confidenceTrusting God as provider—financially and emotionallyTaking the next step when the full path isn’t clear🎁 Free Coaching Gift:I’m offering a FREE 1-hour Discovery Coaching Call where you and I can walk through your goals and calling together.
