Courage in the Chaso - Esther's Story - Week 1

What do we do when our fear isn't irrational - when it's based on real threats to our communities? Drawing from Esther's story and featuring insights from W. Kamau Bell's recent show at the Kennedy Center, this sermon explores how to move forward when the stakes are life-and-death.

Courage is not the absence of fear, but the choice to act despite it. From Frodo's conversation with Gandalf to Esther's "if I perish, I perish," discover how sacred stories and modern examples show us how to: -Name our fears honestly
-Find our unique "lane" of influence
-Support each other in scary times
-Move forward even while trembling

This is for anyone feeling powerless in the face of systemic threats to their community.
