What does it look like to live with courage when life—and ministry—doesn’t go according to plan?

In this second episode of Season 3, Tim Shuck sits down with returning guest Darren Prince to reflect on Joshua 1:9 and explore how courage is formed through the steady, reassuring presence of God with us.

Drawing from nearly two decades of ministry in East London, Darren shares how his team has navigated major transitions—shifting communities, changing team dynamics, and an uncertain future. Instead of clinging to their original plans, they chose to follow where God was already at work.

This conversation invites us to see courage not as boldness or certainty, but as a daily choice rooted in the promises of God.

• Why the phrase “God is with you” is the foundation of true courage
• How to discern whether to stay the course or follow where God is moving
• Choosing courage in seasons that feel like loss or transition
• The shift from building programs to investing in people
• How everyday rhythms and community help sustain a courageous life

Wherever you find yourself today—facing uncertainty, transition, or a difficult decision—remember:

You are not alone.

God is with you. And because of that, you can take the next step with courage.
