On Sunday, we begin our congregation-wide book study and a 5-part sermon series using Adam Hamilton’s Unafraid: Living with Courage and Hope in Uncertain Times. Fear is pervasive. It undermines relationships, makes us suspicious of others, is the root of much conflict and war, and is counter to the Gospel’s command to love. On Sunday, we’ll reflect on Isaiah’s encouragement to Israel to counter fear by trusting God. Isaiah writes, “Do not fear, for I am with you…”. (Isaiah 41:8-10) More than 140 times the Bible encourages us, “Do not be afraid.” God’s desire is that we not be captive to fear but free to love and therein lies our hope. So join us for this important conversation by reading along and listening to the sermons. We’ll see you on Sunday.
