The Christian life isn’t always about soaring like eagles or running without weariness. —Sometimes, it’s simply about putting one foot in front of the other. In this episode of So True, Pastor Philip De Courcy reminds us that faith is a step-by-step journey of submission, trust, and perseverance. Just as Elisabeth Elliot pressed forward after the tragic loss of her husband, we, too, are called to walk in obedience, even when life feels heavy.

Isaiah 40:31 promises strength for those who wait on the Lord—not just for the extraordinary moments, but for the daily grind of life. The question is: will we keep walking? Listen in and be encouraged to take faithful steps, knowing that God strengthens every stride.

In a world that once embraced Christianity as the foundation of morality and truth, believers are now labeled as troublemakers. Christian values on salvation, marriage, and gender are no longer just dismissed—they are condemned as dangerous. But this opposition is nothing new. From the prophet Elijah to the apostle Paul, God’s people have often been falsely accused of “troubling” society simply for standing on biblical truth (1 Kings 18:167–18;, John 15:18–25; Acts 16:20, John 15:18–25).

In this episode of So True, Pastor Philip De Courcy reminds us that while the culture may shift, the gospel remains unchanged. As hostility rises, our response must not be not to compromise, but to stand firm—unashamed, uncompromising, and unwavering. The world may call us troublemakers, but we are not the ones in trouble. Listen now for a bold encouragement to stand for Christ in a world that opposes Him.

First impressions are powerful—but they can also be misleading. In this episode of So True, Pastor Philip De Courcy walks through the story of Elijah and the widow of Zarephath in 1 Kings 17, showing how God often calls us to trust beyond what we initially see. What looked like a hopeless situation became a miraculous testimony because Elijah didn’t let appearances override obedience.

Whether it’s a new job, relationship, ministry, or season of life, the beginning can feel uncertain. But, like Elijah, we’re called to live by faith, not by sight. God’s plans are often hidden beneath humble beginnings, and His promises always outweigh our perceptions. Don’t let early doubts rob you of later blessings—trust that God is at work beyond first impressions.

Some people are good at doing nothing—except criticizing those who are doing something. In this episode of So True, Pastor Philip De Courcy unpacks Matthew 25:24–30, where Jesus warns against the sin of omission. The parable of the talents reminds us that failing to use what God has given us is just as serious as active wrongdoing. The servant who buried his talent wasn’t condemned for doing something wrong—he was condemned for doing nothing at all.

God calls us not only to avoid sin but to actively pursue obedience. It’s not enough to refrain from evil; we must also seek to do good. Are you sitting on your talents, paralyzed by fear or complacency? Listen now and be challenged to use what you have for God’s glory!

Sin always takes more than it gives. In this episode of So True, Pastor Philip De Courcy unpacks Romans 6:23, reminding us that while sin may seem appealing in the moment, but it always comes at a cost. Like the thief tangled in a string of sausages, sin has a way of ensnaring us in unexpected consequences. The Bible warns that sin’s wages are steep: —damaged relationships, spiritual decline, loss of joy, and separation from God’s fellowship.

David, after his sin with Bathsheba, experienced the painful effects of disobedience (Psalm 32:3–4), and Proverbs warns of sin’s destructive consequences. But the good news is that in Christ, grace abounds. Instead of paying the price of sin ourselves, Jesus has paid it in full. Listen now to learn how to resist temptation, count the cost, and walk in God’s grace.

Do you ever feel like life is spinning out of control? In this episode of So True, Pastor Philip De Courcy reminds us through Psalm 46:10 that as believers, we are always in the mighty and merciful hands of God (Psalm 46:10). Just as Martin Luther stood fearless before powerful opposition, trusting fully in God's providence, we too can rest in the assurance that God holds all things together.

Scripture tells us that our times, our success, and even our eternal security are in God’s hands (Psalm 31:15; John 10:28–29). Yet, the temptation is to take matters into our own hands instead of trusting His sovereign care. Pastor Philip challenges us to be still, to surrender control, and to recognize that nothing is out of control when God is in control. Listen now and find confidence in the hands that hold the universe!

Do you truly believe that God is enough? In this episode of So True, Pastor Philip De Courcy unpacks the profound truth of Psalm 23:1—“The Lord is my sShepherd; I shall not want.” Those who belong to Christ enjoy both sufficiency and security because God’s provision is limitless. Yet, what about the needs that seem unmet?

Pastor Philip explores reasons why God may delay provision, reminding us that sometimes we expect too much from God and too little from ourselves, fail to persist in prayer, or misinterpret our true needs. Ultimately, God withholds no good thing from those who walk uprightly (Psalm 84:11). Listen now and learn how to trust in the Shepherd who provides everything we truly need—at just the right time.

Did you know you’re walking around with a spiritual target on your back? In this episode of So True, Pastor Philip De Courcy draws from his days in the Royal Ulster Constabulary—where he faced constant threats—to illustrate the ever-present danger believers face from the enemy of our souls. First1 Peter 5:8–9 warns us that Satan prowls like a roaring lion, seeking to devour us. But how can we stay spiritually alive and alert?

Pastor Philip unpacks practical steps: recognizing our vulnerability, avoiding complacency, studying Satan’s tactics, and daily arming ourselves with the full armor of God. Don’t let the enemy catch you off guard. Tune in and learn to stand firm in Christ’s power, knowing we’re on a battlefield—not a playground.

Have you ever wished you were someone else? In this episode of So True, Pastor Philip De Courcy reflects on the powerful truth of Psalm 139:14—that each of us is “fearfully and wonderfully made.” You are not a copy or coincidence, but a unique creation, handcrafted by God for a purpose that only you can fulfill.

Drawing from David’s meditation on God's intimate involvement in our creation, Pastor Philip reminds us that our design—our gifts, personality, experiences—is not accidental but intentional. Instead of comparing ourselves to others, we’re called to embrace who God made us to be and contribute to His work in a way no one else can. Be encouraged to celebrate your God-given identity and live with boldness and purpose, knowing the world needs you to be fully you.

Is your spiritual life marked by both divine inspiration and holy perspiration? In this episode of So True, Pastor Philip De Courcy unpacks 1 Corinthians 15:10—reminding us that while God’s grace undergirds every good work, there’s no substitute for hard work on our part. Drawing from a memorable farm illustration, Pastor Philip highlights how the best results come when we partner with God’s power through our own diligent efforts.

Discover why true ministry success—and growth in any area of life—often requires as much “perspiration as inspiration.” Tune in to learn how God invites us to put our hands to the plow, trusting that He will bring the increase when we faithfully water and plant.
