About this episode

This episode discusses the fear of failure and how faith can transform our understanding of it.

Fear of Failure What if failure isn’t the thing you should fear most? And what if the very thing you’ve been trying to avoid… is where God is trying to meet you? In Week 3 of Brave: What Faith Does to Fear , we tackle the fear of failure—a fear that doesn’t just come from messing up, but from what failure says about us. From the stories of Scripture to a real-life conversation about chasing dreams, this message exposes how fear often disguises itself as wisdom and keeps us from going all in on what God has called us to. But here’s the truth: failure is not final, and it’s not wasted. Through redemption, God rescues us from the penalty of our failure. Through sanctification, He transforms us so it no longer defines us. And in our weakest moments, His power is revealed the most. This message will challenge the way you think about failure, uncover what it’s really revealing in your life, and remind you that you don’t have to run from it—you can trust God in it. Because when everything feels like it’s falling apart… you may be standing in the very place where His grace shows up the strongest.Message Description Proverbs 24:16, Proverbs 28:13, 2 Corinthians 12:8-9, Romans 8:28…
