Unashamed!
For I fully expect and hope that I will never be ashamed, but that I will continue to be bold for Christ, as I have been in the past. And I trust that my life will bring honor to Christ, whether I live or die. Philippians 1:20
Some years ago I was sitting in a meeting in which there was a disagreement in the room. I remember beginning to get agitated and I eventually walked out.
Right at that moment I lost my boldness to act on behalf of that group, because I had lost my ‘cool’ in front of them. A rash act, a loss of self-control, a silly decision, can leave us without courage.
We feel guilty, ashamed, we have to work at repairing the situation (which is what I did immediately in the days following that event).
Once there is repair, there is courage again.
Paul has just
