The document discusses the concept of courage. It defines courage as the ability to do something brave, dangerous, difficult, or unpleasant out of heartfelt motivation. Courage can take heroic, moral, everyday, or spiritual forms, with spiritual courage relying on faith in God's promises. Examples are given of behaviors requiring courage, such as speaking up, taking responsibility, challenging perceptions, dreaming big, being who God calls you to be, boldly taking action, persevering, saying no, being vulnerable, letting go, and leading. Keys to living courageously include confronting shame, having support, drawing courage from others, knowing your beliefs, staying connected to your strength source, facing fears, and not letting the past determine the future.
