A HOLY FEAR

FaithEmotions

May 4

with Christina Fox

Mention “fear of the Lord” and most people don’t know what it means. Is it terror in God’s presence? Is it fear that He is watching and waiting to condemn us or tell us what a good person we are? Or maybe the Lord will demand that we give up what is most precious to us to prove we fear Him. Or perhaps fear of the Lord grows when we think He is punishing us for past sins. In this conversation, Christina Fox talks to Sharon Betters about how the fear of the Lord frees us from lesser fears and how understanding biblical fear helps us walk by faith when life turns upside down. Christina also shares how the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom in not only the hard places but in the mundane things of life.

This conversation touches the tip of the iceberg on the topic of the fear of the Lord, so we hope you not only listen to this conversation but get a copy of Christina’s book, A Holy Fear.
