Do you feel spiritually sound within yourself until the moment arrives when you feel confronted to share your faith and choose to stay silent? When God is calling on you to act, are you willing to be bold and proclaim your faith or let the opportunity pass you by? Denial is something we can all struggle with, and nobody knows that better than Peter and his fellow disciples.

Join Nic & Dale this week as they discuss all the pains and pitfalls of being weak in the flesh which often times can result in the denial of our most basic Christian principles. Peter proclaimed he was willing to die beside Christ, and the other disciples were quick to second the emotion. However, when faced with the harsh reality, they all chose to scatter and deny their Savior. yet, they were not beyond reproach, and neither are we. It is our desire to continue to move toward God despite our missed opportunities that makes us true followers of The Cross.

In this modern world we live in, surrounded by social media and the acceleration of AI, our independent thoughts are being exercised less and less. We deny Christ our hearts and minds by filling it up with non-sense that keeps our brains on auto-pilot. Mindless gratification prevents us from getting out there and fulfilling the great commission. Denial can become a tool for self-worship, and whether the enemy is working on you or not, it's all the same to him that your treasured time on Earth is wasted and God's mission is put on hold in your life.

If you need some assurance that life doesn't have to be this way, that life is truly well spent when you are bold in Christ, this is a conversation you need to be a part of. There is no better time than right now to re-examine your approach. Are you an ambassador for Christ when given the opportunity, or will you deny Him at every hard turn? Let us know what you think in the comments and please like and share. Help us spread the word and become a part of the great commission!
