Kindred Church

Do Not Fear

kindredchurch.co Season 4 Episode 48

Merry Christmas, Kindred! The phrase “Don’t be afraid” appears four times throughout the retelling of the Christmas story. It’s clear an encounter with the divine was awe-inspiring, but these words are also spoken in response to the specific fears some of the characters carried. We all carry fears of our own about life and the future and the world. Tonight we remember how the Christmas story speaks to our unique fears. When God says, “Don’t be afraid”, he isn’t belittling our worry or uncertainty, but ensuring us he is right here, with us in every dimension of our humanity…including our fear.
 
Inspiration for this series is drawn from Scott Erickson's reflections in his book, "Honest Advent".
