Fear Of Failing / Fear Not / Week 2

None of us want to look insecure. We want to show a version of ourselves that is put together and in control. One that hides our past failures and only shows the best of us. But we know who we are. We know where we've messed up, and the fear of ever being in that place again often keeps us from really living. Maybe your past failures have even kept you at arms length from God? How do we break out of the mediocre and have the confidence to pursue who God made us to be? Let's talk about that!

Fear Of What Others Think / Fear Not / Week 1

What if you don't like me? What if they think less of me? What if I get laughed at? What if they're really not cool with me? The second guessing, the worry, the doubt. Fearing what others think can not only make it hard to live authentically, but also to do the things God wants you to do and be the person He made you to be. So how do we get past it? Let's talk about it!
