Sharing the Good News with Boldness
- Series: Now I Stand
As Paul prays for boldness in the closing of Ephesians, Pastor Hayden reminds us: Paul got bold by praying for boldness. When was the last time you prayed for boldness to share the Gospel? We should be praying at the beginning of each week, “Lord, give me the words to speak and the opportunity to speak them this week in someone’s life.”
Also, in examining the faithful servant Tychicus, Pastor Hayden examines five excuses we give for not getting involved at Harvest and encourages us to be sold-out for ministry in the local Church.

19 and also for me, that words may be given to me in opening my mouth boldly to proclaim the mystery of the gospel, 20 for which I am an ambassador in chains, that I may declare it boldly, as I ought to speak.
Final Greetings
21 So that you also may know how I am and what I am doing, Tychicus the beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord will tell you everything. 22 I have sent him to you for this very purpose, that you may know how we are, and that he may encourage your hearts.
23 Peace be to the brothers, [1] and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 24 Grace be with all who love our Lord Jesus Christ with love incorruptible. (ESV)
