  • The Year of Boldness | Jonny Tillery | Bold Witness
    Feb 13 2026

    Kingdom Culture Phoenix exists to disciple people to know and follow Jesus through Word and Spirit.


    🔑 Key Takeaways

    1. Boldness is not optional for Christians

    Being a witness for Jesus is not a special calling for a few, but a command for every follower of Christ. If you follow Jesus, you are sent.

    “You will be my witnesses…” (Acts 1:8)

    2. Boldness comes from the Holy Spirit, not personality

    Boldness is not confidence, charisma, or extroversion.
    It is Spirit-empowered obedience.

    You don’t need more courage you need the power of the Holy Spirit.

    3. God cares more about the mission than our curiosity

    Jesus redirects the disciples from times and seasons to purpose and power.
    What God is doing through us now matters more than what we want to know about the future.

    4. The mission is global and urgent

    Jesus left the church with one task:

    Make disciples of all nations (panta ta ethne)

    This includes the people you see every day, not just distant nations.

    5. The church is a sent people, not a gathered audience

    The ekklesia is not spectators it’s an assembly sent on mission.
    Church is not where the mission ends; it’s where it begins.

    6. Fear, bad theology, and sin silence our witness

    Christians often don’t witness because of:

    • Wrong beliefs about church and calling
    • Lack of confidence in the gospel
    • Living in bondage instead of freedom
    • Comfort-driven church culture

    None of these are solved by trying harder only by surrender and obedience.

    7. Presence and proclamation must go together

    • Presence without proclamation is confusing
    • Proclamation without presence is unbelievable

    People need to see the gospel and hear the gospel.

    8. Eternity is at stake

    What we do with our time, influence, and opportunities matters eternally.
    Jesus is coming back and He will ask what we did with what He entrusted to us.

    9. The gospel is worth the cost

    Losing comfort, approval, or convenience is nothing compared to gaining what cannot be lost.

    “He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose.”

    10. The harvest is ready—the question is obedience

    The problem isn’t a lack of harvest.
    The problem is a lack of laborers willing to step out in boldness.

  • The Year of Boldness | Eric Upton| Bold Gospel (Part 1) |
    Feb 8 2026

    Kingdom Culture Phoenix exists to disciple people to know and follow Jesus through Word and Spirit.


    🔑 Key Takeaways

    1. Boldness Comes from the Gospel
      • Paul’s boldness came from knowing God’s promises and Jesus’ resurrection (Romans 1:1-5).
    2. Daily Encounters Grow Boldness
      • Engage with Scripture and the Holy Spirit consistently.
    3. Certainty Builds Confidence
      • Study the Bible with context: biblical, historical, literary, cultural.
      • Luke’s Gospel and Acts are trustworthy, based on eyewitness accounts.
    4. The Gospel is Transformative
      • Moves people from the dominion of hell into God’s Kingdom.
      • Not a suggestion; it’s decisive.
    5. Jesus’ Resurrection Validates Bold Faith
      • Proof that God is powerful—“If the tomb is empty, anything is possible.”
    6. Christianity is Invitational, Not Inclusive
      • Call others to the Kingdom, grounded in truth and obedience.

    Bottom line: Boldness grows when you know the Gospel, trust God, and live by the Spirit.

  • The Year of Holiness | Holiness Produces Generosity | Eric Upton
    Feb 8 2026

    Kingdom Culture Phoenix exists to disciple people to know and follow Jesus through Word and Spirit.


    🔑 Key Takeaway

    Holiness produces generosity intimacy with God leads to openhanded living.

    God invites us into generosity through relationship, not pressure.

    Generosity transforms the heart, shapes identity, and grows faith.

    Giving is spiritual warfare that breaks worldly attachments and destroys idols.

    Obedient, unified generosity invites God’s presence to dwell among His people.

    Mary arose with haste faith moves, it doesn’t stall.

  • Presence Driven Church (Part 2) | When “Now” Becomes an Idol | Sloan Adams | Year of Holiness
    Dec 17 2025

    Kingdom Culture Phoenix exists to disciple people to know and follow Jesus through Word and Spirit.


    🔑 Key Takeaways

    When “Now” Becomes an Idol

    • Holiness requires waiting. Saying YES to God often means resisting the urge to act on NOW.
    • Impatience distorts trust. When we refuse to wait on God, we replace faith with control.
    • Unsubmitted desire becomes idolatry. What isn’t surrendered to God will eventually rule us.
    • Idols are often created from good things used wrongly. “Now” becomes dangerous when it replaces obedience.
    • Mercy is released through intercession. God responds to surrendered hearts that stand in the gap.
    • Broken obedience leads to broken trust. Compromise always costs more than it promises.
    • Leadership without holiness creates chaos. Where there is no YES to God, the flesh takes over.
    • Holiness demands decision. Choosing God’s side requires courage and clarity.
    • Delayed obedience is still disobedience. God honors a surrendered YES, not rushed action.
    • True holiness is choosing God’s will over personal urgency.


    Holiness is saying YES to God even when my heart is screaming NOW.
