December 31 Sermon: Fear Not

As the new year beckons, it's time to look inward and consider the words of Jesus in Luke 12:1-7 Do we fear God or do we seek the approval of man? With living to the glory of God in 2024 in view we consider the significance of seeking God’s approval over the fleeting validation of the world around us.

Consider these questions as you listen to this week’s message from Luke 12:1-7:
1. How does Pastor Mark use the concept of "fear not" in the context of discussing the popularity of Jesus and the challenges faced by his disciples?
2. How do you interpret the idea of "fearing God" in contrast to fearing men? What significance does this have in the Christian life?
3. How does the concept of God's knowledge and care for individuals, even down to the number of hairs on their heads, relate to the idea of fearing God and finding comfort in His love?
