- Boldness isn’t making public stances on things all the time, and it’s not just saying everything that pops into your head. In this episode, Jackie and Preston talk about what it truly means to cultivate holistic boldness as a Christ follower today. It’s about obedience to God, death to self, and empowerment by the Holy Spirit. And you don’t have to feel bold to be bold. Let’s talk about it.

Boldness is not a feeling, it’s an act of obedience toward God. 🧡🙌🏾 Amen
🙌🏽♥️
Amen 🙌❤️
“If you can do it in your own power, then it’s not boldness”👏🏽
o
Sheeeesh🔥
Boldness is showing up for Jesus in a world that hates him 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
❤
"Boldness is moving in the direction of fearlessness even if you are afraid. It's doing the scary thing God called you to do in His power." So good and timely!
Jackie is too happy that Preston is singing the song he can’t stand 😂😂😂 it’s the arms for me, though 🤣☠️
“If God wants you to stay here, He won’t let you get fired!” This hit me so much in this period of waiting and trusting God
It does cus im goin through lost after lost but ik God didn’t bring me this far to leave me dry . I believe he’s making room for better🙏🏾 I know he is
"boldness has more to do with obedience" absolutely! I'm going to take this wisdom with me.
I love the body of Christ. I was just praying for boldness and this was top on my timeline. Love y’all!
P.S. Hey Jackie, girl! If you see this, I was featured on your video from Glory so I feel like we’re besties. 😂❤

Spiritual Boldness is being able to do whatever God called us to regardless if it’s uncomfortable or you may stand alone.
To me, Jackie has always been bold. I can’t even imagine her not being bold. So, when she spoke on Beyoncé , it was just Jackie being Jackie. That’s one of many things I admire about her
Same same. But it is Definitely encouraging hearing how they experienced the challenge of boldness and hear a real life examples of HOW to be bold. 🙌🏾
I agree AND it was a next level of anointing and authority for sure!!!
This! Jackie is phenomenal! ❤ I pray the LORD helps me to be as bold as what she calls timid. I really struggle in this area, specially when sharing my faith.
@@Tyasiaaaa🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️❤️❤️
“Will you be able to be bold for Me, when it cost you something?”
that’s good Preston
Agreed. The times when I've been financially unstable is when I've had the hardest time trusting in the will and the timing of God.
Me rn in college🤦🏾♂️
Me right now… for the past year
Boldness as a Christian was a huge part of my testimony. Attending an HBCU and being surrounded by Fraternities and Sororities caused me to take a bold stance against them because of what they were channeling. It was challenging for me at the time because I enjoyed that culture, not only did I think it was cool but I thought it was right and When God spoke to me I knew that people would classify me as something I’m not for Obeying my Lord and Savior. Crazy times we live in. Interesting culture that we come from. Thank you Jesus for coming into my life.
My grandma told me recently that when people are openly speaking on there belief in conversation that’s always your chance to be bold on your faith.
AMEN…”BOLDNESS is showing up for Jesus in a world that hates him”
Jackie giving Preston adlibs is hilarious. Thank God for this message, also sick of the hunters.
I love this conversation because I'm always sick of the people who loves to call out other Christians every time for clout but not for God's Glory.
"You see things because I want you to say things."
"Will you be able to be bold when it costs you something? Will you be able to speak up for the Lord when it matters the most?"
"Boldness is not doing what men are afraid to do. Boldness is doing what God told you to do."
"Boldness is more about obedience to God than paying attention to what other men are not doing."
"Boldness is not about addressing men at times, but it's about honoring & showing up for Jesus....Sometimes it's you showing up for Jesus in a world that hates Him."
•Be led by the Spirit and not by social media.
•Boldness has more to do w obedience. Boldness doesn't always require speaking.
•Being bold is about BEING. BE-ing.
•Identify what we are afraid of.
•Process through the fear. Bring God into it. Entrust yourself to Him in the midst of feeling it all.
•Boldness isn't a feeling. We don't have to FEEL bold to BE bold. Sometimes you just have to DO it. If you wait to feel it, it's probably not going to happen.
•Boldness is not contingent upon us, but is the work of the Person of the Holy Spirit.
WHHEEEEWWWWWW!!!!! 🔥🔥😩🙌🏽 Thank You, Lord for these notes, for this conversation!!! SPEAK, FATHER!!! TEACH & REBUKE!!! HALLELUYAH!!!
great summary.

Listen…Preston starting this episode off by singing the unofficial “theme song” let me know right away that he was gonna be preaching. And preach he did. I needed to hear this. Lord, please help me to be bold. ❤
"Boldness is not doing what men are afraid to do, Boldness is doing what God told you to do"🙌
Preston: *speaking truth*
Jackie: “help us out”…”ok”…”I don’t know”…”quote it”…”context”…”uh huh”…“mmm”…”yeah yeah yeah yeah rah rah”…”historical context”…”UH HUUUH”…”repentance”…. I love these ppl 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
❤❤❤❤ my latest job tested my boldness and wooooo God is amazing 🤩 and used me to speak up on something that has been going on at this company for some time. I may be without a paycheck but it’s because God has a bigger check for me 🙏🏽🙏🏽
“God sees my needs and will handle it when HE decides to” whew! I’m in that season you spoke of and that just blessed me tremendously!!
That part!
"Boldness is not just about doing but about being." Indeed, boldness comes from sitting in the presence of God!
This whole episode is so good! Thank you for this wholesome, godly and edifying conversation♥
This video has come in the most perfect time. I am now a senior in high school and I God has been telling me that he's unrolling the plans he has for my future. He's given me this new boldness I've never had before. I used to say "when I grow up ill go to another church where I feel like I can grow" " when I get older I will be able to not care what my parents think and tell strangers that God loves them" I always was a coward when I was small, but now I feel like God's telling me I need to stop because he is bringing me closer to what he's calling me to do.
"Boldness has more to do with obedience; walking in obedience" 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯👏👏👏
I want that T-shirt!!! "Boldness is not doing what men are afraid to do; boldness is doing what God told you to do. ~Preston Perry" AMEN
It made sense to me too, if it’s something easy to do it isn’t boldness… that’s a word 👏🏽
WHEWWWW !!!!
When I think of boldness I also think of people committing to an act not necessarily out of obedience to God but having a deep understanding that it’s just the “right thing to do”
Like Ruth staying with Naomi despite being a foreigner with no means of provision, Esther walking into the King’s presence knowing full well she could die, Abigail seeking mercy from David when he and his men were on there way to slaughter her household, or the woman with the issue of blood pushing through the crowd to touch Jesus despite her uncleanliness
They weren’t necessarily obeying a command from God, though God’s hand was obviously over each of their lives, but acting out in what they “just had to do” in the moment, if that makes sense
It does!!! Thank you for sharing and pouring in!
That feeling like “it’s the right thing to do” is the Holy Spirit !!! Praise God!!
The way Jackie is hyping Preston up is everything. I love how they love each other ❣️
God's timing with these podcasts is marvelous! Thanks for blessing the Church with ya'lls ministry.
Praying for protection from the enemy as you two continue to serve the Lord your family and the Church💛🧡❤️
Man i love how Preston and Jackie literally riddle off so much depth of knowledge. You can just tell theyre flowing in the will of God. '
#Thispart 'Boldness isn't doing what men are afraid to do. Boldness is doing what God told you to do'. And as if that wasn't enough he continued on to say
'which means that boldness has more to do with our obediences to God than paying attention to what people are not doing'...drops mic. That was it for me 🙏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾
Let's go Holy Spirit! MOVE ahead of us!
"You see things cos I want you to say things" So good!!!
Jackie, many years ago I asked God to give or take away my peace in taking a job offer. My husband was hurting me and I needed to hear from God.
I had a foot so heavy on me, I said no. Peace restored, 3 months later they called me back, I didn’t ask the Lord said yes and it was the worst decision of my life.
My prayer life has changed and now I’m asking God for strength to get through trails. After divorce, about to celebrate 28 years of marriage to a wonderful Christian man. God restores broken lives!!
“Are you speaking when the Lord wants you to speak” ….Yes that part! 🎉🙌🏽🙌🏽💯
YOU GUYS ARE JUST SO SPIRITUALLY BLESSED
Go off Preston 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 this whole conversation got you BOLD!
Being bold can be so many things but it should always display the love, light and wisdom of Christ.
I agree, and if carried out by the power of the Holy Spirit it will accomplish those things you're saying.
“You see things because I WANT YOU TO SAY THINGS” MY GOODNESS!!!!
"Will you be able to be bold for me when it costs you something?" WHATTTTTTTTTTTTTT. So good!!!!
Jackie is hilarious around 15:00, Preston was so passionate too.. girl, you funny 😂
Come on Perrys’!!!!! Y’all showing out tuh- day! Y’all teaching & PREACHING to the people 👏🏾❤
🙌🏽🙌🏽♥️♥️Yea, they are!!! Show’n All The Way Out😊👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
You cannot be bold or courageous without there being fear involved.
The definition of courage is doing something in spite of the fear you have for it.
While I'm watching this video Preston's input brought Marcus Rogers to mind.
This video was so necessary. Thank y’all for continuing to be bold together as an act of obedience. God bless you both.
We just had our 2nd child and my husband got notice while on parental leave that he would be laid off. Our baby wasn’t even a week old yet. So when Jackie started talking about seasons of provision being sketch is where we at lol. In this time I’ve been reminding my husband and myself who God is and what He has done in us, through us and for us. He is so good, so faithful, so merciful, and so kind to us. We give Him thanks and praise even in this season where we don’t know but He does.
Yess indeed - The Apostle's boldness came from spending time with Jesus.
Great convo. This is literally confirmation for me. For my church's jail ministry lesson we talked about "Fear God, Not Man". And I declare the Lord is speaking to me about being bold. Thanks again.
Confirmation: in our jail ministry we also did Fear God Not Man! God bless you and your ministry. May God continue to make you bold and to be effective with those you minister to.
Powerful! The fear you have usually tells you what you believe about God, wow! Thank you Jackie
She was holding back?! Let’s goooo! Unleashed Jackie walking with the boldness Holy Spirit. Can’t wait to see what will happen in the body of Christ after people realise that boldness doesn’t have to be mean but it’s truth. This made me feel empowered but outside of that, it gave me Word to focus on, so that even when I no longer feel empowered, I know I am still, very much in His hands 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
We were all created for this time in history. Boldness is a requirement of the kingdom. May we all fulfill the call for the glory of The King.
Believing that God is sovereign over our lives 🙌🏽
This video gave some conviction .. I really wish I had some discipleship because I’m fighting between being obedient and giving God’s warning to the world from the things He tells and shows me , to feeling bad about my delivery. I don’t want to be a heresies! Now I’m sitting here is wondering why did He call me to do something that I could be failing at!
Hey friend! Ask the Holy Spirit to fill and lead you with the love of Jesus and trust in Him that He will go before you! And follow the heavenly roadmap drawn out by the Apostles in Acts. If God has asked something of you He will ALWAYS resource you. Go in peace friend ❤
I feel inadequate when I share about God all the time. But I have found that God is faithful, and if I asked him to help me to have the right words, he is so faithful to do that. God wants to partner with you in sharing your faith.
Mic drop Preston!!!! 😂 I love y’all 😂. I stumbled upon this podcast not long ago and I am hooked. I love the work that you two are doing outside of this podcast as well.
Sammeee ❤
I love Preston and Jackie. They have the best relationship. You can tell that they are friends and I love it. 🙏❤
I love the way Jackie looks at Preston when he's teaching.
"Boldness is moving in the direction of fearlessness even if you have fear." -Jackie Hill Perry
"Boldness is you showing up for Jesus in a world that hates Him." -Preston Perry
thank you JESUS for this word for your word give us boldness to walk not only by faith but even in the things we cant see. so that we are always reminded of not just what you are doing but being reminded of what you have already done. Lord i want to be bold not just in the comfort of my peers but in the moments where fear creeps in. Amen
“Bring God into the Fear” So much confirmation in this episode!
PREACH PRESTON!!
🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾
I Love that Preston. The inability to remember who God is causes the fear. Having confidence in whobGod is will allow us to persevere.
“Boldness is not always addressing someone / something but honoring God.. especially when it cost you something” This is my 5th (or more) time watching this episode and that hit differently this time. Thank y’all so much for this conversation!
God testing me is a way of God showing me what’s in me because He already knows. I move toward boldness as my life is purified as hold is refined in the fire causing impurities to boil to the top and be removed. What’s left is this boldness/this faith that’s absolute in truth bound in a relationship with The Most High.
Lord.... the conviction.
“Testing is an act of revelation” FACTS. God has tested me so much in parenting…that the test revealed my pride!
15:21 my goodness this retelling of the Sanhedrin hit different today 🥹 Thank you!!! That was 🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾 Don’t even need to apologize, brother 16:14
Here is some revelation I got from this interesting take on the topic of ‘Boldness’:
Based on what Preston said midway through the video, you mentioned the scripture God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind.
FALSE boldness is manifested in an individual out of fear that they don’t want people to see who they REALLY are… So what do they do? For example:
Let me call out people on their mess and call it “being real”
Let me call out false teachings and call it “being fearless”
Let me be the loudest in the room and call it “being bold”
No…the REALITY is, you’re really operating in fear and masking it with outlandishness and outspoken-ness (If that’s a word 😂)
This was a great video. Thanks for sharing
Thank you Jesus ! This was exactly what I needed… I’ve been running away from this topic b/c it’s a sensitive spot for me not feeling like I’m bold enough to preach, teach or reach with the Gospel. But this podcast has illuminated the word of God in me in so many ways.. these are just a few truths God revealed to me:
1. Like Preston said a SOUND MIND ! Many a time our fear takes root in us not knowing the will of God (in this case Jesus being predestined to die) or lack of experiencing the love of God or just needing power (by the filling of the Holy Spirit) ref. 2 Timothy 1:7
So in short our fear shows our defiance by & thus need for God in some way.
2. It’s easier to be bold in what God has called me to do when I’ve made it a habit to obey Him when I don’t feel like it, I’m upset, irritated, tired, etc. so even when I’m fearful, I’m empowered to do God’s will because it’s been a practice to obey Him. So fear has no footing where obedience is rooted.
3. Boldness is not a personality - it’s a way of being in GOD.
4. Lastly, God bless you two & your team! Launching this podcast is bold I self. Living for Jesus in a world so contrary to Him is bold !
Boldness in speech AND in doing the will of God. The focus should be shifted from having a personality of boldness to doing God’s will and growing in intimacy with Him where we are assured He’s with us (“perfect love cast out all fear” - 1 John 4:18)
God bless❤
Great episode. I’m sick of the heresy hunting too😂😭
Its sad! No one seems to take on the task of correcting if there is error privately....
I just love when Preston is onto something and you're just cheering him on.. Hercules Hercules 😊
Boldness is obedience to God. I think sometimes in a way that doesn’t make sense to anyone. Even right now I have a word from God concerning what I need to do this year and the path I need to take and so many people are against that and I get calls from people giving “advice” to stop me from acting “crazy” and I have to be bold in this moment and set my face like a flint because God’s will has to be done in my life.
Hello brothers and sisters. This video was exactly what I needed as I am majoring in Sociology in my University, and it is opposed to what God values. I am constantly pinpointed to debate or speak. However, I need wisdom in how I can glorify him but speak truth 🙏 I ask that you all please pray for me.
Just speak! Gods Spirit will provide the words. When you feel that unction, pray in the moment and speak
@@sofiadelcielo thank you 🙏🙏🙏
Why do you say it’s opposed? My first major in college was sociology but I changed it before getting to upper level courses
@@NikIrchirl can I gently ask why you changed it before you took upper courses ? There are many reasons why, as we read our textbooks the author of many theories behind Sociology are against religion although they might not say Jesus in particular, it is an anti-christ spirit behind what they teach us, and they shifted making anyone who believes in religion demonic and "oppressive" and that you can freely chose to believe what you want to believe and morality is subjective which is completely not true and undermines the gospel as a whole. This is why many people in our society are hating God and think everyone has a agenda to oppress them. I am not being political but I'm just stating why it is opposed. (Before I knew what I knew I couldn't get to figure out why many people in our society hates God, although the Bible tells us in the last days they would, but there is so much more to it because they are teaching this exact curriculum to many students which questions anyone in faith and demonizes Christianity because it is so generalized in what they are teaching) I don't want to blow up these comments by adding in depth what I mean, because there would be too much to point on, but I am thinking about praying about another major, because I am really questioning it.
Although I do not agree with it as a whole I genuinely love those who are incarcerated and struggling with drug addiction and originally and still want to be a therapist And case manager in both settings for his glory, but I will soon know which exact major I can take, whether if he calls me to stay or move.
(BTW my major was sociology too)
Jackie , at 10:58 you begin speaking about the very thing I’ve been disturbed by lately. Christian podcasts that find heresy everywhere. The lack of self awareness is embarrassing. I’d love to see them pivot back to Christ and his glory ❤
"testing is an act of revelation. I want YOU to see what is in your own heart." this was a word on its own. i never saw it that way. i even held angst toward God because i thought it was sort of a "sport" for Him.. like the pop quiz in school your math teacher would spring on you with a chuckle. nonetheless i trusted that testing had a purpose but i didn't know it was for ME. now i need to go repent & talk to God about this 😂😂
That word “hieratic” has me in such a chokehold right now, I’m not comprehending it in its fullness.
The fact that Brutha Perry has on Bengals gear makes this episode so much better!
A timely message. I’ve been considering content creation and first and foremost my audience is gonna know I love the Lord. I just feel like once ppl find out you love Jesus they’re ready to cancel you
Remember the eternal purpose and reward before hand and during!!
Jesus said if they hated me, they will hate you too. But we serve him anyways because we don't live for people's approval
Loved this
I love your conversations literally from start to finish! 😂
"Boldness is more about obedience" that's so good
Wow…..I understand that comment, Jackie, where you leave some conversations with individuals feeling anxious and subsequently bullied. I have been there and consequently had to end the relationship because I learned and came to an understanding that this person ultimately didn’t respect me and there was nothing I could do to change that. It came so clear ❤. I haven’t felt or dealt with it since.
All of this just blessed my whole soul! TY for obeying God and creating this podcast
Past few months I've been reading my Bible for the first time in a really long time. Always felt like I couldn't hear God or like he wasn't talking to me and when I say the timing of this video is eerie I mean it. This past week I've been praying for courage to speak to my younger sister about her spirituality and new age faith. She does tarot card readings, strongly believes in her identity as a Leo, cancer moon rising or whatever, has Crystals, in fact she even knows how to make jewellery with them and what their properties are. The other night she burnt her fingers cause she was doing a ritual and instead of thinking it was a bad thing she's like, "I always get burnt when something big is about to happen in my life". All her life she's liked to play with fire - I even teased her about it growing up but now it's not funny, not when I think about the eternal fire she's basically running towards. She's so stubborn and I just know this isn't going to be an easy conversation to have. I'm genuinely scared and anxious, cause I know I'm going to have to bring up our past traumas and her experiences and what lead her to becoming a chakra hun. Please pray for me guys🙏🏾
🙏🏽
Pray more for her so that the Holy Spirit draws her to Himself so that when you do speak to her it's just confirmation of God's love.
@@naaskyadork I'll continue doing so. Thank you
"Nowing that my life is in God's hand." Thank you Preston for your words. May God bless the both of y'all. ❤
“You see things because I want you to say things”
Wow! I’m always commenting before I finish watching the podcast- but- wow when Sir Perry spoke about switching the tomb and placing Jesus there!!!! 🔥🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
"At the bottom of our fears is what we really believe about God" Wow... I felt that for myself
When i think about boldness , i think about the apostles and disciples as boldness is mentioned alot in acts. Moreover when myself or some of my sisters and brother's in Christ go out to evangelise we always ask for Boldness to be able to preach the gospel because it is often intimidating. But also to be bold to believe that Christ can move when we go out to witness
More over Paul in ephesians 6:19 requested for prayer for boldness to preach the gospel .. there is a lot to boldness.
Yesss! Showing up for Jesus when everyone else hates Him. EEEBBBAAAA!
Preston. Preston. Preston. Preach brother!! Love it!!! #Heresy hunters
Yes when I am up against financial issues man that’s where I am tested the most like God of you see this? Do you hear my prayers or see my tears? but then a tell Him I trust You Lord you have been taking care of me my whole life why would you stop now! 🙏🏾 good episode Mr and Mrs P
Wow. He's singing it...that's awesome. " the Saints and the Ain'ts"
Wow. I love you guys. I knew something good was coming. I felt like I needed to search for “boldness in Christ”, and typically a lot of Christian channels that stumble into my rotation inflame my insides by those you labeled so well as “heresy hunters”, so I haven’t had a ton of luck with finding social media Christians that feel this authentic. I am looking for Truth in this loud and distracted world, and He had y’all show up for me today? Thank you for your ministry. Subscribed, liked, and now gonna catch up on your content. I have a lot more to learn, and I need people so obviously bathed in the Spirit as resources in my life. And all these followers in the comment section are such beautiful people. I am in love with the vibes here. Thank you 🙏🏻❤
Why I had to pause the podcast because I needed to holler …. Jackie when Preston is telling stories is not for the weak 😂😂😂😂😂😂… ok I’m back now … let me finish watching
Boldness to be and do!!! My God. It's obedience.
🔥 Boldness is obedience and obedience isn't a feeling so boldness is not a feeling.
I love what Preston said about backing up the online "boldness" with community involvement for Christ. I just got started, this week, in a 5 month evangelism/discipleship group. We are going through a book called "Disciples Making Disciples Level 1" put out by The Timothy Initiative (familiar at all?-I wasn't), and going out to practice evangelism either at the mall or the park or some public area, on the spot. I have a lot of "reasons" not to do this but I have no excuse for disobedience and I know God called my introvert, single mom self to this so I'm here for all of it bc HE is in me and I TRUST that my life and my time are in HIS hands.
When's the release of your book (P)?
God be moving and providing, this video came out after i looked at Acts 4:31 yesterday regarding boldness. and asking God whether i should speak or not, and the part where Jackie spoke about the fact that we don't have to feel bold to be bold spoke to me. also asking The Lord to give me the boldness i need. love what Preston pointed out about knowing that God is sovereign and whatever happens is because He predestined it to and will make it happen. The Lord is good.
So encouraged to hear your perspective on the ones online with their pretended boldness. Their videos are building themselves up and tearing others down. That is not a ministry ....and all of their "yes men" followers only serve to bolster their pride. 😳You are honoring Christ by not naming names at this time... don't waste your time..... the Lord knows and will deal. If they are our family... may the Lord give them grace to see and a heart to turn to a ministry that is more in line with the word. Much love from above,
Jb
This was so good. I have already watched it 3 times.
Spirit filled, unironically so bold with all the points you guys were making.
Praying for your cameraman haha! aint
Loved watching Jackie adore her husband. Loved watching Preston spew his profundities , clearly Holy Spirit lead but clearly evidence of his study time. Thoroughly enjoyed this episode too, I just wish my wife didn’t fall asleep halfway through it 😮💨
Thank you Perry's for allowing The Lord to lead you, guide you, provide you with good content and spiritual food for Believers, and context for all.
Please pray about adding benediction to the close of your podcasts because there may be at least one person who wants to accept the Salvation of Jesus Christ on the spot. Keep REPPIN Jesus and thank you! 🙌🏿🙏🏾
🔥🔥🔥 I love how Preston broke down boldness talking about Joseph of Arimathea 👏🏾👏🏾. Blessed me!!!
I just love when you squeeze Jackie with a question she pours out natural Scripture and she is serious with it! I love true Saints of God....that doesn't negate my brother Preston the fruit truly shows! I love yall so much God bless you and all of yours
