39. No Fear Here!
Show Notes

I used to be so addicted to fear…yep…I said it. I was addicted to fear. I was addicted to horror movies…I couldn’t wait until the next one came out. I went to haunted houses. Now looking back, it’s crazy to me just how addicting fear really is. 

 It wasn’t until a couple years after I became a Christian that I had a conversation with another Christian about how I was going to watch the next horror movie that had come out and he looked at me…not in a judgmental way, but in a way that was just matter of fact. He said, “I don’t watch horror movies.” 

After I picked up my jaw off the floor because I was so surprised…ha-ha…I asked him why and I remember his response so clearly even to this day. He said, “I don’t understand why people intentionally invite fear into their lives when God tells not to fear.”

 That night changed my life! 

2 Timothy 1:7 says that “God has not given you a spirit of fear, but of power, of love and of a sound mind.” 

 1 John 4:18 then goes onto tell us that there is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out all fear, because fear involves torment. Whoever fears has not been perfected in love.

What is love? 

1 John 4:8 tells us that God is love. 

There is no fear in God, but God's perfect love casts out all fear!  


Fear is a liar! But fear is also very real. You may have heard of the acronym for fear that says, “False evidence appearing real.” That’s exactly what fear is. Fear is a tactic the enemy uses that is meant to paralyze us so that we are not effective in making a difference for Jesus.

Three of the biggest fears we face:

  1. The fear of failure-
  2. The fear of missing out
  3. The fear of rejection
