Are You Playing It Safe or Living Your Faith Out Loud?
Ready to take your faith to the next level? In this message, we tackle the gap between wanting a deeper faith and actually living it out. We dive into Acts 5, where the apostles stepped out in bold faith, even when it was risky. Their courage led to extraordinary miracles—and it all started with ordinary people willing to be used by God.
You'll discover that staying in your comfort zone is where faith goes to die. But when you step into the unknown, that's where you'll truly experience God's power. This message pushes you to ask yourself: Are you ready to let God work through you, or are you too busy playing it safe? Don't miss this challenge to live your faith out loud, just like the apostles did in Solomon's Colonnade, even when it might invite opposition or discomfort. Let’s make our faith bold, public, and alive.

- God's healing power is holistic, addressing body, mind, spirit, and relationships
- Doubt is not the enemy of faith but can push us towards Jesus when we allow it
