Witnessing Boldly | Josh Landen
In this sermon, Pastor Josh Landen, Executive Pastor, reflects on Acts 4:1-12, where Peter and John boldly proclaim the resurrection of Jesus despite facing arrest and opposition. Empowered by the Holy Spirit, Peter's transformation serves as a powerful example of witnessing to our faith with courage, even in the face of challenges.
Pastor Josh shares a personal story about a car accident that illustrated how faith and witness intersect in moments of chaos, calling us to be ready for divine opportunities. He explores the church’s mission to be a gospel-centered community through worship, love, and boldness—boldness that isn’t brash but Spirit-led confidence.
He offers practical ways to witness in daily life, from sharing testimonies to fostering holy conversations tailored to each person’s unique gifts. Pastor Josh also addresses the reality that many Christians struggle to share their faith, urging listeners to view witnessing not as a burden but as a joyful privilege.
Finally, Pastor Josh challenges listeners to pray for divine appointments and step boldly into their role as witnesses, trusting the Holy Spirit to guide them as they live out the Great Commission.
