Is your life characterized by hope and calm or by fear and bitterness? Those attitudes come from two very different sources. What does it tell the world about Christ when you claim to have faith in Him, but at the same time you’re moping around or acting out in anger because you’re afraid of what’s to come? Pastor Mark will remind us that in Christ we have no reason to fear anything. Even death itself is not a real threat. It’s not that we enjoy illness, persecution, or loss, but the hope we have in our eternal Savior can outweigh the burdens this world constantly tries to heap on our shoulders.
