Fearless #9. “It speaks for itself!”

Our airwaves are full of people pushing themselves forward as the latest authorities on all things “important.” I cannot recommend enough that Christians leave their familiar surroundings to take in the sights and sounds of the world far beyond their homes. One of the first things an astute traveller will notice on their return is that all those self-appointed authorities didn’t even notice they were gone. Thus, the only appropriate reaction to this is to spend the rest of your…

Fearless #8. “It is by faith you stand firm.”

From the earliest days of my Christian walk, I saw something in the church that I had never seen elsewhere. These men and women possessed a strength of community that went beyond the best of friendships; they were a family of true believers. These Christians were good people, and I was honoured to know them. They brought blessings of every kind to my life, but the one they wanted to share most was the one they held most dear—Eternal Life!…

Fearless #7. “Going forth to meet the day.”

Do you remember when “Trials and tribulations” were the stuff of those old sermons of yesteryear? They were the hard times that fell upon the other people – unless you were unlucky enough to have someone bring their problems over your threshold. But otherwise, your life was pleasant, if not predictably mundane. Now, if “Pleasant, if not predictably mundane” describes your present state of being, then you may want to reconsider the whereabouts of that cross that you are supposed…

Fearless #6. “Stuck Record.”

As a kid, we had one of those old Radiograms sitting in our lounge. I can’t remember the radio ever being used, but I remember playing the records—45s, LPs, and 78s. Some of those records were old and in poor condition, and inevitably, because of surface damage, the needle would slip and a line in the song would get caught in a continuous repeat cycle. It was no mystery…you had a “Stuck Record.” However, if you were lucky, you could…

Fearless #5. “Born of experience.”

There is no greater compliment than to have people say that you spend too much time thinking about Jesus. If so, you are in good company. For not only did the apostles spend their every waking hour thinking about Jesus, but they also had the blessing of spending three and a half years in his presence. When Peter and John ended up on trial before the Jewish leadership, the more they spoke, the more it became obvious who they reminded…

Fearless #4. “The Fearless Fool.”

The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God” (Psalm 14:1). Go online and watch atheists railing against the existence of God—they are fearless! It is not for nothing that scripture insists: “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction” (Proverbs 1:7). Those humbled by God’s grace wonder at the unbeliever’s lack of fear. But it should not surprise us when a man deceives himself into thinking that there is…

Fearless #3. “Do not Fear.”

My guess is that most prayer is done either side of “normal.” When we feel things are going extra well, we tend to praise the Lord more fervently, and when things are not going well, we tend to seek God’s help more fervently. Any Christian that has endured intense financial hardship has done so in the company of Faith and Fear. Though Faith would have pointed out that Fear was a destructive guest, Fear’s presence would have felt so familiar…

Fearless #2. “I will fear no evil.”

Satan sells you evil with the charm of a crooked used car salesman. You are all smiles until his deal leaves you broken-down and fearing for your safety. And like that salesman, he makes you believe that it’s the fault of everyone but himself. Only the love of the Lord can put us in a place where we need not fear the consequences of our deals with the devil. The only way that you can possibly “fear no evil” is…

Fearless #1. “What can mere mortals do to me?”

If you have been extorted by a business with no option but to pay the outrageous bill, you are not alone. I once witnessed first hand a brother being ripped off by two panel beaters and a tow truck company. Despite his vast reservoir of knowledge and experience in dealing with such matters, he had to pay every last cent or forfeit his car. Though he feared none of them, he paid! It’s a wise Christian who understands that being…

This Calls for Wisdom #12. “Strange Voices.”

There are Radio Stations and Online Sites that are exclusively dedicated to conspiracy theories about government involvement in alien activity on earth. Now, while you and I are busy recoiling at the first mention of this nonsense, there are talkback radio hosts literally leaning into their microphones imploring their callers to tell their story. Obviously, these people do not get out much! Believers and unbelievers have this in common: They both accuse each other of listening to no one but…
