Brave Action Ministry
Take 2. Phase 1.
In the late fall of 2016, God planted the vision for Brave Action Ministry in my heart. At the time, I had just returned from an epic summer of camping, hiking, and mountain biking across Canada, and I had settled in Grand Junction, Colorado, for the unforeseeable future. It was there that I began to piece together what I believed this ministry could be—centered around a secular course I was trying to transform into a Christian one. However, I quickly realized I lacked the biblical knowledge and spiritual foundation to bring that vision to life.
Five years earlier, I had given my life to Christ but hadn’t yet surrendered fully to Him or developed the discipline of studying His Word. I was what the Bible calls a “milk-consuming Christian,” unaware of how to truly follow Christ. Even so, God was at work in my life and had already moved in amazing ways.
I knew I needed guidance from someone more seasoned in faith. I assumed I could find a pastor or mentor to come alongside me. But to my surprise (and perhaps no one else’s), no one stepped in to help me. No one, that is, except God. While I didn’t recognize it then, He was ready to lead me deeper—I just wasn’t ready to accept His help.
A few years ago, God reignited the call for Brave Action Ministry in my heart. Looking back, I now see that His invitation in 2016 wasn’t about launching a ministry right away. It was about entering the fiery furnace—a season of refining my faith, deepening my relationship with Him, and learning about His Word. Back then, I tapped out, which led to a period of backsliding. But God is faithful, and He wasn’t finished with me.
Brave Action Ministry. Take 2. Phase 1. is the beginning of what will grow into a ministry designed to help Christians deepen their walk with Christ. This first phase is about sharing my personal story and testimonies of God’s faithfulness and the start of gathering resources and key concepts that baffled and escaped me the first six years of my walk of faith, which played a part in my backsliding. The information I want to make available to other believers starting out.
