Acts 4:13—Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated and untrained men, they marveled. And they realized that they had been with Jesus.
2 Timothy 1:7—For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power* and of love and of a sound mind (NKJV).
Ephesians 6:19—and for me [praying always, v. 18], that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel (NKJV).
2 Balancing conviction with compassion.
