"Overcoming Evil Without Fear" (Romans 12:9-21) — Jeremiah Modino

Right now in our world, we’re living in a time where anxiety feels constant—there’s pressure to figure out our future, hold everything together, and not fall behind. At the same time, the cost of living is rising, and the world feels more divided than ever. Anxiety isn’t just something we feel anymore—it’s the atmosphere we live in. In this series, A Non-Anxious Faith, we journey through Romans 12, to discover what life looks like when fear no longer defines us because Jesus is Risen. Easter reveals that our deepest fears—of losing control, identity, security, and justice—are answered in Christ, inviting us into a new way of living marked by trust, surrender, and peace.In week 3, Overcoming Evil without Fear, Pastor Jeremiah in this message, we explore what it looks like to trust the risen Jesus in our relationships: to not escalate conflict, to forgive without losing dignity, and to overcome evil with good. It’s easy to respond to conflict with more conflict — to retaliate, protect, and fight back. But in Romans 12:9–21, we’re given a radically different vision: a life marked by love without retaliation.This is what resurrection-shaped love looks like — not the absence of anxiety, but a life no longer ruled by it.
