Your faith needs to be APPLIED!! Walk in faith, and step over your fear

Main message: Faith requires repeatedly stepping over doubt, fear, and lack — acting despite insecurity or insufficient resources. The preacher uses personal stories to show that each move of faith meant confronting and stepping past a specific barrier.

Key points:

• "Stepping in faith" means stepping over doubt into action, not waiting for perfect conditions.
• Personal example: signed a building contract when the facility was dark and inadequate, then committed to expanding and installing lights despite the cost.
• Refused to become a "money preacher" and had to move beyond a mindset of limited resources.
• Had to step over fear about fatherhood and the possibility of failing as a parent.
• Battled insecurity about musical ability but chose to step into ministry anyway; many of his songs reflect that insecurity.
• Repeated theme: every time he stepped into faith, he stepped over something tangible (doubt, fear, lack).
