#Joshua 1:9; 1 Thessalonians; Hebrews 10:39; Hebrews 11; Luke 6#
Ben Hayes' main point is that God calls Christians to a life of holiness, which means being strong and courageous in a scary world. He emphasizes that this requires trust and faith in God, and that it involves being set apart and living differently from the world. Ben shares personal stories of facing his fears, including an irrational fear of snakes, to illustrate the importance of trusting in God's power and promise to be with us wherever we go. He encourages the congregation to replace the voice of temptation with the phrase "Rock hak amatz," which means to be strong and courageous in God, and to live out this faith by being examples of holiness in their daily lives.
