Living Heroically in Mission Discipline and Determination

Living Heroically in Mission Discipline and Determination

In this episode of The Defender Bible Study, we're taking a break from our study on the book of John to dive into what it means to embody a "heroic archetype" in ministry, beginning with a powerful message from our friend Ken Norwood, CEO of Kenergy Coaching, LLC. Drawing from Acts 11:19-26, Ken shares insights on how ministries can embrace a heroic posture, using the example of Barnabas to illustrate three foundational elements: understanding our mission, living with discipline, and remaining determined despite challenges. This episode calls us to step boldly into our unique mission, rooted in Christ, while making impactful, intentional choices that shape a courageous ministry culture.
