Free from Fear

Fear dominates the human landscape and is used by many power brokers—politically, economically and religiously—to manipulate people to do what they wouldn’t otherwise freely choose to do. According to a recent Newsweek article brain science now shows that our response to fear in any capacity will always trump reason and rationality. Brad and Wayne respond to this article in the context of how religion has preyed up on the fears of their followers to conform them to the needs of the institution. No wonder Jesus came to set us free from fear and does that by inviting us into a relationship with a Father who loves us more than anyone on this planet ever has or ever will.
