Bestselling author and Bible teacher, Steve Farrar, reminds us through the story of Daniel that true courage can be ours daily and it comes from the one true Sovereign God.
Everyone can recall as a young child having the courage to head out the door—whether it was to your first day of school, your first game in little league, or your piano lesson. Then life takes over and you lose your bravado, giving in to the fears of the world around you.
In True Courage readers will discover a God who provides incredible courage to us in the midst of uncertainty, even through treacherous, evil days, and the courage to face lions in their den—or an unexpected job loss, the diagnosis of a sick child, or the return of a debilitating cancer.

“The works of God are the acts of God. He can do fabulous acts because He has unlimited power. ‘Is anything too hard for the Lord?’ Of course not. So what do you do when the tight place threatens to choke off your very existence? You live off the facts—facts that cannot be refuted or challenged. We have a God who acts. And if He has acted in the past, why wouldn’t He act now?” (source)
“God the Father, God the Son, and God the Spirit are in complete control of the events taking place in your life, in the life of your nation, and in the life of the entire world. In fact, apart from Him, there would be no life in the universe at this moment.” (source)
“The truth is, when the events and circumstances swirling around us seem out of control, they are actually under control” (source)
