How to live an audacious life sounds complicated, but in reality is all about what you believe yourself in Christ.
When You or I think about an audacious or bold life we obviously have a different definition of what that life would look and be like. My idea of an Audacious life will involve a country home with Gardens for me to “putter” around in a Winnebago for me to travel in and a tour of the Wonders of my country.
Yours might look more like a Mission impossible Motorcycle ride or a Die Hard Series. Whatever your heart’s desire it is up to you to discover the “How To” part of who you are going to become. So where to start? To seriously know who you are going to become you must know who you are. So who are you? I’m not referring to the psychology of you or your personality I am talking about the soul of you.
Learn Who you are in Christ.
According to God, who were you born to be?
