What if some of the most meaningful ministry opportunities happen in the middle of your everyday life? In this episode of the Be Bold For Jesus Podcast, we sit down with Katie Goud, co-founder of Intentional Blessings Clothing, to talk about faith, obedience, and learning to follow God's leading one step at a time. Katie shares how a simple desire to honor God grew into a business that sparks conversations about Jesus and creates opportunities to encourage others. We also talk about living intentionally, recognizing divine appointments, and trusting God even when you don't feel qualified. This conversation is a powerful reminder that God can use ordinary people and ordinary moments to make an eternal impact.

In this episode of the Be Bold For Jesus Podcast, we sit down with Mason Smith, evangelist, preacher, and co-host of Torchbearers on the Good Vue Network, to talk about hearing the voice of God, sharing the Gospel, and living a life fully surrendered to Christ. Mason shares his powerful testimony of battling anxiety, depression, addiction, and hopelessness before encountering Jesus in a life-changing way that completely transformed the direction of his life.

We dive into the role of the Holy Spirit in the life of a believer, why knowing Scripture and being led by the Spirit must go hand in hand, and how Christians can learn to recognize God's voice in a world full of distractions. Mason explains why the secret place, time in God's Word, and simple obedience are essential for anyone who wants to grow deeper in their relationship with Christ.

Mason also shares incredible stories from ministry, including a powerful testimony from Kenya where a simple act of obedience led to healing and freedom in someone's life. Throughout the conversation, we explore evangelism, discipleship, humility, and what it truly means to decrease so that Christ can increase. This episode is packed with biblical wisdom, practical encouragement, and a reminder that God is still speaking to His people today.

Whether you're new to your faith or have been walking with Jesus for years, this conversation will encourage you to spend time with God, trust His leading, and boldly step out in obedience when He calls.

Is revival happening among young people today, or are we just seeing moments of excitement?

In this episode of the Be Bold For Jesus Podcast, we sit down with Ellie Hildebrand, Youth, Young Adults, and Experiences Director at Sun City Church Post Falls, to discuss what God is doing in the next generation. From stories of life change and discipleship to conversations about freedom, repentance, and spiritual hunger, Ellie shares what she's witnessing firsthand among students and young adults.

We talk about the difference between hype and genuine revival, why discipleship matters more than programs, and how churches can create environments where young people truly encounter Jesus. Ellie also shares her journey from attending Sun City Leadership College to helping launch the Post Falls campus, and how God has used relationships, small groups, and intentional leadership development to raise up the next generation of disciple-makers.

This conversation explores worship, revival culture, church growth, and why lasting transformation begins with repentance and surrender. If you've been wondering whether God is still moving among today's youth, this episode offers an encouraging look at how students are finding freedom, discovering purpose, and saying yes to God's call on their lives.
