Fear Not

When we think back to that first night in Bethlehem, we often think of the joy and hope felt by so many at the birth of Baby Jesus. But when Mary first learned about the miracle of Jesus growing inside her, her primary emotion was fear. Can you imagine how scary this situation was for her? Can you comprehend the amount of faith Mary had to have to overcome this fear?

We also go through frightening times in life. We can let that fear control us, or we can listen, as Mary did, when Jesus says, "Do not fear. I am with you."

Watch Part Two of our Christmas services as our pastor Brian Kamstra talks about how we can find lasting peace in the middle of our fear.
