What does it really mean to live bold as a lion?

In this powerful episode of Be the Encounter Podcast, James & Katie unpack the biblical call to courage through Proverbs 28:1 and reveal the deeper meaning behind a lion's roar—hunger, territory, and identity—and how it applies to your spiritual life.

From the Roman context of Jesus' words to the truth about the Armor of God (and why you were never meant to retreat), this episode is a wake-up call to stop fearing the battle and start advancing in it. If you've been distracted, passive, or unsure of your authority in Christ, this conversation will challenge you to rise, take your place, and feast on what God has already prepared.

It's time to remember who you are—and live like it. 🦁🔥
