Fear Is Rising

Wars, rising prices, artificial intelligence, a divided nation and a news feed that never stops. If you’ve felt weighed down by it all, you’re not alone. On this episode of The Final Hour, Pastor Dave walks through recent findings from the American Psychiatric Association, the American Psychological Association and Gallup. They show how many people in America and around the world are struggling with worry, stress and emotional exhaustion. Then he opens the Scriptures to show that Jesus described this very condition long ago. In Luke 21, Jesus spoke of a day when hearts would fail for fear of what was coming on the earth. In the same passage, He told His followers to do something different: look up, lift up your heads, because redemption is drawing near. This message is a practical guide for believers who want to stay alert to world events without being swallowed by them. Pastor Dave explains why smartphones and constant headlines make the weight heavier. He also shows how to run what we take in through the Philippians 4:8 filter, and why being watchful is not the same as being worried.
