HOW TO BUILD CONFIDENCE
Part II
Philippians 3:1-11
Have you ever wanted to ask a preacher, "Why do you preach?
What do you want to accomplish when you preach." Well, if you
were going to ask me that and I guess you are now, why do I

thing that we need to do in order to build confidence and that
is:
I. REJOICE WITH YOUR VOICE
And we talked about that. The importance of praise and then the
second thing that I shared with you is that:
II. RESIST WITH YOUR MIND
There were four areas that we need to resist and I shared with
you there ...
