102 – How to Walk in Victory Over Sin with Karl Clauson
What is the one struggle you keep asking God to remove, but haven’t yet surrendered fully to Him?
In this episode of Bold Faith Now, Missy sits down with pastor, radio host, and author of Killing Sin: Conquer the One Thing That is Defeating You, Karl Clauson, to talk about an often-avoided topic: confronting the sin patterns that quietly shape our lives. Karl shares his powerful testimony of addiction, repentance, and transformation, explaining why so many believers remain stuck in a cycle of striving and failure. This episode is a call to rediscover the life-changing power of grace, not just for salvation, but for daily victory, and to embrace practical, biblical steps toward freedom.
In this conversation, they discuss:
-
Grace is not only what saves us, but it’s what trains us. We cannot sanctify ourselves through effort; transformation comes by staying in a posture of dependence on Christ (Titus 2:11–12).
-
Sin thrives in secrecy but loses power in the light. Honest confession to God and trusted believers is a biblical pathway to healing and freedom (1 John 1:9; James 5).
-
Victory requires spiritual action. Karl’s framework—Confess it. Attack it with Scripture. Block it with boundaries — believers actively cooperate with God’s work in their lives.
We don’t defeat sin by willpower. We overcome by daily relying on the grace, truth, and authority we already have in Jesus.
Remember to live boldly for Jesus and let your light shine bright for Him!\

Welcome Friends!
My name is Missy, and I love Jesus!
I am a Christ-follower, wife, mom, author, speaker, Colson Fellow, and host of the Bold Faith Now podcast. My heart is to encourage believers to live boldly for Jesus in a world that often tells us to stay quiet, blend in, or keep our faith tucked safely in the shadows.
Through writing, speaking, and podcasting, I help believers grow in bold faith, stand firm in truth, and view the world through a biblical worldview. Because following Jesus was never meant to be passive. It is a call to shine His light, speak truth with grace, and take the next obedient step.
My prayer is simple: to point others to Jesus, encourage bold faith, and remind believers that now is the time to live courageously for Him. Join the Bold Faith community and listen to the podcast for encouragement to live out your faith with conviction, clarity, and courage.
