A Courageous Heart

Today, we hear the frontline experience of growing up in Christianity and the many unique roles and paths the lord takes his men and women of God on. In this Journey, Stan Bradburn shares with us his many road trips, flights and seasons of travel and travel partners he has ministered with as a developing young man in music. His starting point happens over the phone when he hears he can sing as a friend from school requests him to sing a song. From there, God moulds and shapes him into an amazing musician. There are pitfalls, temptations, and things to overcome in each path. Sometimes, it is refreshing to investigate the walk of a brother or sister in the Lord so we know how to pray, how to receive them and where to bring support as they walk out their salvation with fear and trembling for the Lord. Stan shares in a very humble way his heart and story for the Lord.
