Courage in the Current - Soul Care | Week 4 | Jeff Gokee

<p>One moment, life can feel like a sturdy bridge—safe, predictable, and secure. The next, it can feel like an uncontrollable river carrying us toward the unknown.</p><p><br></p><p>In Psalm 27, David shows us how to respond in both seasons. We do not find courage by gaining control, ignoring our pain, or pretending we have no questions. Courage grows when we remember that the Lord is our light, our salvation, and our stronghold. He is present on the bridge, in the river, and everywhere in between.</p><p><br></p><p>In this message, we discover how intimacy with God confronts fear, why honest petitions deepen our relationship with Him, and what it means to wait for the Lord with strength and courage.</p><p><br></p><p>Phoenix Bible Church is a church in the heart of the city of Phoenix, Arizona. We desire to engage culture, uphold truth and love people. In a world where life can be heavy and confusing, we want to cover the hard truths - with grace. This is difficulty and messy - and so are we - but the love of Jesus meets us in our mess.</p><p><br></p><p>Our rhythm is to gather to worship on Sunday and then scatter during the week to love, live and lead together.</p><p><br></p><p>We are imperfect people moved by the perfect love of Jesus.</p><p>Come as you are. Experience His love.</p><p><br></p><p>----------------------------------------------------------------------</p><p><br></p><p>Website</p><p><a href="https://phoenixbiblechurch.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://phoenixbiblechurch.com</a></p><p><br></p><p>Connect with Phoenix Bible Church</p><p><a href="https://phoenixbiblechurch.com/connect" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://phoenixbiblechurch.com/connect</a></p><p><br></p><p>Social Media</p><p><a href="https://instagram.com/phxbiblechurch" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://instagram.com/phxbiblechurch</a></p><p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/phxbiblechurch" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://www.facebook.com/phxbiblechurch</a></p><p><br></p><p>Chapters:</p><p>00:00 Psalm 27</p><p>02:07 Bridges, Rivers, and the Human Condition</p><p>05:15 What You Fear, You Follow</p><p>07:16 The Lord Is Your Light</p><p>09:13 The Lord Is Your Salvation</p><p>10:34 The Lord Is Your Stronghold</p><p>13:25 Confidence in God’s Presence</p><p>18:08 Intimacy as Artillery</p><p>23:17 Lift Your Head</p><p>26:09 When Confidence Suddenly Cracks</p><p>28:17 Permission to Petition God</p><p>32:00 Remember the Goodn
