Strong and Courageous: The Call to Step Up

What do you do when life demands more from you than you feel ready to give?

In this episode of the Step Up Podcast, Pastor Chris Kouba and host Josh Thomas continue their conversation through Joshua 1, unpacking what it truly means to step up—not because you feel qualified, but because God has called you.

From leadership and marriage to parenting, friendships, and everyday decisions, this conversation challenges men to move from passivity to responsibility. You’ll hear why courage isn’t something you wait for—it’s something you build—and how grounding your life in God’s Word shapes the way you lead, decide, and act.

If you’ve ever thought, “I’m not ready for this,” this episode is for you. Ready or not, the call is clear: step up.
