What Does It Mean to Be Bold? A lot of people think boldness is for other people. The people who seem more confident. More qualified. More spiritual. More ready. But that’s not how God works. Throughout the Bible, God calls ordinary people to do extraordinary things. A shepherd boy became a king. A fisherman helped build the Church. A persecutor became a preacher. A carpenter’s son became the Savior of the world. Boldness is not about having no fear. It’s about saying yes to God even when fear is still present. The Be Bold For Jesus Podcast is here to highlight real people living that out every day. From pastors and ministry leaders to business owners and everyday believers, these are conversations that will challenge your faith, strengthen your walk, and remind you that God still uses ordinary people who are willing to obey. Because boldness doesn’t start on a stage. It starts with a yes. Will you say yes?

    Ellie Hilderbrand, Youth, YA, & Experiences, Sun City Church PF | Is there revival in the Youth?

    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. ✝️ Be Bold For Jesus Conference ✝️ https://bebold4jesus.org/spokane/ ✌️ Stay Connected with Be Bold For Jesus ✌️ https://bebold4jesus.org Instagram: @bebold4jesusministries ⛪ Learn More About Sun City Church and Ellie ⛪ https://suncitychurch.com Instagram: @suncitypf @elenor_rose5 🏠 Sponsors 🏠 https://cogocapital.com https://patriotmobile.com/bb4j https://thesaviorbrand.com/?ref=bb4j 🎥 Chapters 🎥 (0:00) Introduction & Meet Ellie Hildebrand (0:50) Sun City Leadership College (1:28) Youth, Young Adults & Experiences Ministry (2:03) Building a Multi-Generational Ministry (2:40) Joining the Post Falls Launch Team (3:03) Planting Sun City Post Falls (4:01) The Church Merger Story (5:19) Finding Sun City During 2020 (6:21) A Life-Changing First Visit (7:00) Jumping Into Ministry (8:20) Building a Worship Pipeline (9:39) From Residency to Staff Leadership (10:14) A Day in the Life of Ministry (11:44) Why Discipleship Matters Most (13:18) Sun City's Culture of Discipleship (14:12) Small Groups Over Programs (15:17) Teaching Students to Read the Bible (16:07) Specialized Freedom Groups (17:18) Know God, Find Freedom, Discover Purpose (18:37) Applying the Vision to Worship (19:01) Choosing Songs That Make Disciples (20:22) Worship, Purpose & Calling (21:52) Revival, Church Growth & Hunger for God (23:41) Reaching Students Far from Jesus (24:57) A Story of Freedom & Healing (26:10) Repentance Before Revival (28:15) The Truth Will Set You Free (30:35) Seeing New Believers Find Freedom (31:17) Revival Starts with Humility (34:17) Momentum in Ministry (35:35) Raising Up Student Leaders (36:15) Hero Makers, Not Heroes (37:03) Watching Students Step Into Their Calling (39:25) Encouragement for Ministry Leaders (40:49) Psalm 27 and Staying Grounded (42:03) Why Presence Matters More Than Success (43:16) Identity Beyond Ministry Results (44:14) Faithfulness Over Platform (45:56) How to Connect with Ellie & Sun City (47:19) Closing Thoughts

    Steve Cohen, Never Too Lost, eleven34 Communities | Are you ever too Lost?

    Can someone be too far gone for God? In this episode of the Be Bold For Jesus Podcast, we sit down with Steve Cohen, founder of Never Too Lost and church planter of eleven34 Communities in Utah. Steve shares his powerful testimony of going from a passionate atheist who openly mocked Christianity to becoming a follower of Jesus with a heart for reaching people who feel hopeless, forgotten, or far from God. His story is a powerful reminder that no one is beyond the reach of God's grace. We talk about the mission behind Never Too Lost, the desperate need for church planting in Utah, and why Steve believes one of the greatest barriers to the Gospel is the idea that some people are simply "too lost" to be saved. Through personal stories, ministry experiences, and biblical truths, Steve shares how God's love pursues people even in their darkest moments and how one faithful Christian's love and patience helped change the course of his life. This conversation also explores grace, mercy, legalism, church hurt, discipleship, and what it means to surrender fully to the lordship of Christ. Whether you're wrestling with faith yourself or wondering how to reach someone who seems far from God, this episode will encourage you to trust in a Savior whose love never fails. ✝️ Be Bold For Jesus Conference ✝️ https://bebold4jesus.org/spokane/ ✌️ Stay Connected With Be Bold For Jesus ✌️ https://bebold4jesus.org Instagram: @bebold4jesusministries 🔥 Learn More About Never Too Lost 🔥 https://nevertoolost.com Instagram: @nevertoolost_ ⛪ Learn More About 1134 Communities ⛪ https://eleven34.org 🏠 Sponsors 🏠 https://cogocapital.com https://patriotmobile.com/bb4j https://thesaviorbrand.com/?ref=bb4j 🎥 Chapters 🎥 (0:00) Introduction & Meet Steve Cohen (1:20) Church Planting in Utah (2:02) Why Utah Needs More Churches (2:40) Sustainable Ministry Models (3:23) The Story Behind Never Too Lost (4:00) From Atheist to Christ Follower (4:57) Paul, Redemption & Being Found (5:28) Why the Name Changed (6:57) Reaching People with Hope (7:10) Steve's Conversion Story (8:20) When Love Changes Everything (10:35) The Bible That Changed His Life (12:24) "I've Had It All Wrong" (12:58) The Power of God's Word (13:43) The Lost Outside & Inside the Church (14:52) Grace, Mercy & Surrender (16:24) Why Lordship Matters (18:18) Legalism vs Freedom in Christ (20:20) Is Anyone Too Far Gone?

    Latoya Lackey, founder of Latoya Lackey Ministries | How do you take your thoughts captive?

    What if true freedom starts with understanding who you really are in Christ? In this episode of the Be Bold For Jesus Podcast, we sit down with Latoya Lackey, founder of Latoya Lackey Ministries, to talk about identity, freedom, rest, and the power of renewing your mind. Latoya shares how God called her ministry to focus on three core pillars: hope, identity, and freedom, and why so many believers struggle not because they lack information, but because they don't fully understand who they are in Christ. Through years of ministry, teaching, retreats, and personal experience, Latoya has discovered that lasting transformation happens when we move from simply learning about God to living from a place of intimacy with Him. We dive deep into practical ways to take thoughts captive, recognize lies we've believed about ourselves, overcome anxiety and overwhelm, and develop a healthy thought life rooted in God's truth. Latoya also shares insights from her book The Bluff House, discussing the importance of slowing down, breaking free from the culture of constant productivity, and learning how to live from God's peace instead of striving for validation. This conversation is packed with biblical wisdom, practical tools, and encouraging reminders that God never wastes a season and that true freedom is found in knowing who He says you are. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, feeling trapped by negative thoughts, battling imposter syndrome, or simply wanting to grow closer to Jesus, this episode will encourage you to embrace God's rest and walk confidently in your identity. ✝️ Be Bold For Jesus Conference ✝️ https://bebold4jesus.org/spokane/ ✌️ Stay Connected with Be Bold For Jesus ✌️ https://bebold4jesus.org Instagram: @bebold4jesusministries 🙌 Learn More About Latoya Lackey Ministries 🙌 https://www.latoyalackeyministries.com https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/that-kingdom-life-podcast/id1549432499 📖 Get The Bluff House by Latoya Lackey 📖 The Book: https://amzn.to/4xosd6T The Companion Guide: https://amzn.to/3TW1xvz 🏠 Sponsors 🏠 https://cogocapital.com https://patriotmobile.com/bb4j https://thesaviorbrand.com/?ref=bb4j 🎥 Chapters 🎥 (0:00) Introduction & Meet Latoya Lackey (0:53) Hope, Identity & Freedom (1:55) Finding His Rest (2:35) Teaching Identity in Christ (4:22) Latoya's Ministry Journey (5:29) Corporate Training & Ministry (7:23) How God Uses Every Season (9:34) Knowledge vs Transformation (10:07) Experiencing God's Presence (12:12) Taking Thoughts Captive (14:13) What Are Thoughts?

    Josh Bingle, Genesis Church Lead Pastor | What is Truth?

    What is truth, and how do we know we're building our lives on the right foundation? In this episode of the Be Bold For Jesus Podcast, we sit down with Pastor Joshua Bingle, lead pastor of Genesis Church in Spokane, to talk about truth, identity, faith, culture, and how Christians can stay grounded when the world around them is constantly redefining reality. Josh shares the story behind Genesis Church and why their vision combines a modern expression of ministry with the wisdom and guardrails of historic Christianity. We also talk about objective truth versus “my truth,” why Church history, creeds, and confessions still matter, and how Scripture gives us a foundation for thinking through the difficult questions of our time. Josh also shares insights from his upcoming book, True North, and offers practical ways believers can think biblically about modern issues without losing their foundation. What does it look like to follow Jesus faithfully when there are so many competing voices? How can we know what is true, understand why it matters, and confidently live from a foundation that doesn't move? This is an honest, practical, and encouraging conversation for anyone who wants to grow in their faith, navigate culture with wisdom, and discover what becomes possible when our lives are anchored to truth. ✝️ Be Bold For Jesus Conference ✝️ https://bebold4jesus.org/spokane/ ✌️ Stay Connected with Be Bold For Jesus ✌️ https://bebold4jesus.org Instagram: @bebold4jesusministries ⛪ Learn More About Genesis Church ⛪ https://genesisspokane.com Instagram: @genesisspokane 📖 Learn More About Joshua Bingle & True North 📖 https://joshuabingle.substack.com/ https://amzn.to/4b5PFNx 🏠 Sponsors 🏠 https://cogocapital.com https://patriotmobile.com/bb4j https://thesaviorbrand.com/?ref=bb4j 🎥 Chapters 🎥 (0:00) Introduction & Genesis Church (1:36) Josh's Story & Church Planting Journey (3:18) The Historic Church & Modern Expression (6:10) Guarding What Has Been Entrusted (8:15) Why Church History Still Matters (10:04) What Is Truth?

    Darin Patzer, Shine 104.9 | What is the story of Shine?

    How do you reach people with the Gospel in one of the most unchurched regions of the country? In this episode of the Be Bold For Jesus Podcast, we sit down with Darin Patzer, General Manager of Shine 104.9, to talk about the power of Christian radio, local ministry, and building unity across the Church. Darin shares the story of how Shine grew from a regional network station into an independent local ministry focused on Spokane, Coeur d'Alene, and the surrounding communities. What started as a radio station has become a platform for encouragement, discipleship, outreach, and connecting people with what God is doing throughout the Inland Northwest. We talk about why the Pacific Northwest is a unique mission field, how Christian media can impact people in their everyday lives, and the role worship music plays in shaping and strengthening faith. Darin also shares stories of lives being transformed, the heart behind Shine Fest, and how Shine works alongside churches and ministries instead of competing with them. Through local outreach projects, global missions initiatives, and daily encouragement over the airwaves, Shine's mission remains the same: helping people draw closer to Jesus and reflect His light to the world. Whether you're passionate about ministry, music, evangelism, or simply looking for encouragement in your faith, this conversation is packed with wisdom and practical insight on what it means to be a light in your community. ✝️ Be Bold For Jesus Conference ✝️ https://bebold4jesus.org/spokane/ ✌️ Stay Connected with Be Bold For Jesus ✌️ https://bebold4jesus.org Instagram: @bebold4jesusministries 📻 Learn More About Shine 104.9 📻 https://shine1049.org Instagram: @shine104.9 104.9 in CDA, ID 94.9 in Spokane, WA 91.7 in Sandpoint, ID 🏠 Sponsors 🏠 https://cogocapital.com https://patriotmobile.com/bb4j https://thesaviorbrand.com/?ref=bb4j 🎥 Chapters 🎥 (0:00) Introduction & Darin's Story (1:14) From Business to Ministry (2:31) The History of Shine 104.9 (3:22) The Pacific Northwest Mission Field (4:12) Partnering with Local Churches (5:18) The Power of Christian Radio (6:42) Becoming an Independent Station (8:38) How God Grew Shine (10:05) Why Local Ministry Matters (12:19) Stories of Life Change (14:10) From Darkness to Light (15:15) The Impact of Christian Music (16:17) Christian Artists & Humility (19:40) Staying True to the Mission (21:02) Shine's Core Values (22:29) Giving Back to the Community (23:47) Serving Locally & Globally (25:12) The Story of Shine Fest (27:32) A Gift to the Community (29:06) Powerful Testimonies (30:06) Jesus Changes Lives (31:26) Music, Discipleship & Growth (33:18) Anchored in Scripture (34:02) Abiding in Christ (35:09) Daily Time with God (36:44) What We Consume Shapes Us (38:22) How to Connect with Shine (39:28) Upcoming Events & Shine Fest (40:06) The Shine App (41:18) Be Bold For Jesus Conference (41:50) Closing Thoughts

    What does it really mean to raise a girl in today’s world—and how do you point her toward truth when culture is constantly pulling the other direction? In this episode of the Be Bold For Jesus Podcast, we sit down with Patti Garibay, founder of American Heritage Girls, to talk about identity, purpose, and what it looks like to raise the next generation of young women rooted in Christ. Patti shares her powerful testimony—from searching for truth to encountering Jesus in a life-changing way—and how that led her to step out in faith and start a movement that’s now impacting girls across the country. We dive into the heart behind American Heritage Girls, the difference between what culture says about girlhood versus what Scripture says, and why it’s more important than ever for young women to know who they are in Christ. Patti also shares practical encouragement for parents navigating hard conversations, the importance of discipleship at home, and why community plays such a key role in shaping strong, confident, faith-filled girls. This conversation is real, encouraging, and full of wisdom for anyone who cares about raising up the next generation with truth, clarity, and purpose. ✝️ Be Bold For Jesus Conference ✝️ https://bebold4jesus.org/spokane/ ✌️ Stay Connected with Be Bold For Jesus ✌️ https://bebold4jesus.org Instagram: @bebold4jesusministries 🇺🇸 Learn More About American Heritage Girls 🇺🇸 https://americanheritagegirls.org YT: ‪@AHGchannel‬ Instagram: @AHGfun Podcast: Raising Godly Girls 🏠 Sponsors 🏠 https://cogocapital.com https://thesaviorbrand.com/?ref=bb4j https://patriotmobile.com/bb4j 🎥 Chapters 🎥 (0:00) Introduction Meet Patti Garibay and the vision behind American Heritage Girls (0:31) Patti’s Story Her journey to faith and encountering Jesus personally (2:47) A Turning Point A life-changing moment that led to fully following God (4:15) The Birth of American Heritage Girls How a cultural shift led Patti to start something new (6:15) Taking a Stand Choosing to act instead of staying silent (7:43) From Small Start to National Movement What began with one group grew far beyond expectations (8:16) What Is Girlhood?

    Path of Life, Sheri Olsen, Executive Director and Co-Founder | What do I do about these feelings?

    What does it look like to walk out a journey of deep, gospel-centered healing and redemption? In this episode of the Be Bold For Jesus Podcast, we’re sitting down with Sherry Olson, the executive director and co-founder of Path of Life in Spokane, Washington. Sherry opens up and shares her powerful personal testimony—from her early career in the legal field to surrendering her heart to the Lord after carrying years of silent grief from past abortions. Out of her own restoration story, God birthed a beautiful calling to walk alongside others through post-abortion recovery. We dive deep into the unique, discipleship-focused mission of Path of Life, exploring how they navigate complex, real-world struggles like unwanted same-sex attraction and gender identity issues. Sherry shares why they completely reject "cookie-cutter" formulas, focusing instead on long-haul sanctification, face-to-face relationship building, and equipping parents to love and support their struggling children well. This conversation is a beautiful, encouraging reminder that true biblical community is about tackling the hardest topics together with transparency, grace, and an unwavering commitment to Christ. ✝️ Be Bold For Jesus Conference 2026 ✝️ https://bebold4jesus.org/spokane/ ✌️ Stay Connected with Be Bold For Jesus ✌️ https://bebold4jesus.org Instagram: @bebold4jesusministries 💡 Learn More & Support Path of Life 💡 https://pathoflifespokane.org Instagram: @pathoflifespokane 🏠 Our Sponsors 🏠 https://cogocapital.com https://securedinvestmentcorp.com https://patriotmobile.com/bb4j https://aphbuyshomes.com 🎥 Chapters 🎥 (0:00) Introduction – Meet Sherry Olson and the new Spokane Valley facility (1:14) From Commercial Law to Ministry – Sherry’s background and testimony (2:18) Finding True Healing – Moving past the silent grief of abortion (3:00) Developing a Grief Model – How the Path of Life resource was born (4:26) The Launch of Path of Life – Psalm 16:11 and the heart of the ministry (5:12) Four Core Areas of Service – Relationship resources and pregnancy services (6:29) Navigating Culture and the Church – A look at unwanted same-sex attraction (7:32) The Approach of Sanctification – Discipleship involving the whole person (9:46) Meeting People Where They Are – Moving beyond a "cookie-cutter" approach (11:16) Dennis Stratton’s Story – The profound impact of walking together (12:48) God Going Before Us – Launching online Zoom ministry before COVID (15:38) The Panicking Parent – Why we can't just "fix" someone (16:20) Parent Support Groups – Learning how to love and relate to your child (18:13) Partnering Across the Country – Leading online parenting cohorts (18:56) The Importance of Desire – Letting the client set the goal (19:42) Getting to the Root – Unpacking trauma and family systems (21:03) Moving Beyond the Quick Fix – Commitment to long-haul discipleship (23:06) Genesis 3 and the Blame Game – Taking issues to the Lord (24:09) Biblical Community & Family – Vulnerability and growing together

About

What Does It Mean to Be Bold? A lot of people think boldness is for other people. The people who seem more confident. More qualified. More spiritual. More ready. But that’s not how God works. Throughout the Bible, God calls ordinary people to do extraordinary things. A shepherd boy became a king. A fisherman helped build the Church. A persecutor became a preacher. A carpenter’s son became the Savior of the world. Boldness is not about having no fear. It’s about saying yes to God even when fear is still present. The Be Bold For Jesus Podcast is here to highlight real people living that out every day. From pastors and ministry leaders to business owners and everyday believers, these are conversations that will challenge your faith, strengthen your walk, and remind you that God still uses ordinary people who are willing to obey. Because boldness doesn’t start on a stage. It starts with a yes. Will you say yes?
