This week, we look at what it means to be courageous as a man of God, persevering through suffering and finding ways to become more like Jesus in the process. Courage is the motivation to do something challenging because you have a commitment to someone or something that supersedes your desire for comfort, pleasure and happiness. You can't always choose your times to be courageous, but through discipline and an understanding that God only brings into your life what is necessary for you to flourish, you can be ready to take courageous steps when the moment arrives.

This week, we kick off "Man Month" at CCC by talking about what it looks like to be a "man after God's own heart," much like King David was. Whether you're "feasting on the Word of God" by reading, studying and acting upon Biblical truth, repenting wholeheartedly when you sin or worshiping God and ascribing all glory to him, hear what it takes to live as a man of God in today's broken world.

The Bible is a book that has the ability to reshape lives. In a "post-truth" society, it is as important as ever that we recognize God's word as authoritative in our lives. The Bible won't change us if we compromise on what it says, nor if we don't recognize and accept God's grace through Jesus' death on the cross. After all, we are designed to live the fullest lives while living within the parameters of God's plan, and the Bible is our best means of understanding and walking in his ways.
