Facing the Giants: Personal Courage Through Personal Presence - Baptist (Deuteronomy 31:6)

Source: ChurchWiseAI71 wordsAI-crafted by ChurchWiseAI

Coach Grant Taylor receives personal courage for his personal challenges—infertility, career threat, losing seasons—from God's personal presence. Baptist spirituality emphasizes personal relationship: God goes with YOU; He will not forsake YOU. Deuteronomy 31:6 is personal promise to personal believers. Grant's breakthrough came through personal encounter; his courage was individually received. Be strong because He goes with you personally; be courageous because He promised you individually; He will not leave you specifically.
