Is Guilt a Giant that needs Taming in your life? Guilt, like Fear, can be a healthy piece of your emotions. However, it sometimes can be unhealthy if we let it overwhelm us. Don't let that "bad" guilt ruin your ability to ask God for forgiveness. He will hear you. Don't push God away. This message gives Hope and Encouragement!

Fighting Fear
October 7, 2020 • Hannah Gallagher
By looking at several characters in the Bible, we can find guidance for fighting fear as they did. 1) Do you define yourself by negative events or experiences? 2) Do you have lifestyle choices that reinforce your fear? 3) Do you gravitate towards people who reinforce your fears? (News, social media, other fearful people) To combat this you must shift your focus. As believers we have the surest place to shift our focus! Jesus!
Disarming Discouragement

Why is it that some people come through adversity better than others? Are you a victim or a victor? How do we disarm discouragement? Are you working with the Lord? What are you trusting in? Trying to tame the "giants" in your life is difficult. 1) Confess your discouragement to the Lord. 2) Examine what you believe or don't believe. 3) Get into and walk in God's perspective.
