Listen "Fear Not Fear (Luke 2:8-18)"
Episode Synopsis
Variations of “do not fear”, “do not be afraid”, and “fear not” appear more than 100 times in the pages of scripture—it’s clearly something that God wants to address, and it’s clearly one of the things we’ll struggle with most in life.
We live in a world that pours fuel on our anxieties so that we stay in a state of perpetual fear. What should be healthy, helpful fears can grow into a gigantic specters of terror that paralyze us and dictate the ways we interact with others and ourselves.
But when we put fear into the context of something or someone “bigger”, then fear doesn’t have to be the loudest voice or the driver of our lives. We can rest assured that united with him, we, too, can fear not fear, because he came to this earth to be with us. To meet us in our fears as a human being… and to meet our fears with the promise that he is almighty, powerful, good, and just.
