Episode 8: Freedom From Fear

The Ragamuffin Gospel Discussion (SPUMCColumbus)

00:00 / 00:23:43

Hosts: Tommy Bridges and John Fugh, Jr.

People prefer the known to the unknown. People tend to fear what they do not know. The many “what if” questions we ask, as Manning describes, cause us to take a second mortgage out on our house of fear. Fear denotes a feeling of punishment. Freedom does not. Fear holds many of us captive; yet, if we deny that we are held captive by fear, we will never be free from it. Freedom in Christ is the freedom that comes from not having to be controlled by the “what if” questions of life.

We would love to hear from you. Feel free to reach out to us at podcast@spumccolumbus.com.
