The Canteen features weekly sermons from the preaching ministry of Christ Community Church. We're continuing in our series Thieves of Joy, a study on the book of 1 John, the idea of joy in Christ, and how to sustain it amidst all the things in life that threaten to snatch it away. This week Pastor Blake takes a look at fear - and in particular, the fear that comes from knowing that our love and goodness don't measure up like they should. Our text for this message is 1 John 4:7-5:4. This sermon was originally preached at CCC on 7/17/22.
