Ellie uses the biblical figure of Benaiah from 1 Chronicles 11:22-24 to explore the theme of bravery. Ellie highlights Benaiah's seemingly impossible feats, such as killing a lion in a pit on a snowy day and defeating a seven-and-a-half-foot-tall Egyptian warrior. The message focuses on three characteristics of Benaiah: he attacked adversity head-on , he did not let circumstances get in the way of his mission , and his courage led to honor. Ellie concludes that Benaiah's bravery was not his own but was rooted in his identity as a follower of God, arguing that believers can walk in true bravery only when they know and trust God's character.
