4.26 - Acts 4:1-31 // Surprising Boldness

Boldness doesn’t come from personality. It comes from the Spirit.
In Acts 4, Peter and John face real pressure. Arrested, questioned, and threatened by the same leaders who crucified Jesus, they respond with courage that doesn’t make sense on paper.
Why? Because they had been with Jesus.
In this message, Pastor Bryan walks through Acts 4:1–31 and shows how boldness is not something we manufacture. It’s something the Holy Spirit produces in us when we surrender and stay close to Christ.
In this sermon:
- Why following Jesus will sometimes create tension
- Where real boldness actually comes from
- How proximity to Jesus changes everything
- What to do when fear and anxiety take over
- A powerful prayer you can use when you need courage
The early church didn’t pray for safety. They prayed for boldness.
And God answered.
