     | 3,348 views

    But how do we keep a 'right' point of view about Jesus and the Christmas Story in the face of so much that influences us otherwise?

    How we interpret our feelings about a particular event or circumstance is not always the same as someone else. When others take great risks in life, you might tend to label them foolhardy.

    God Just Wants Me To Be Happy Series

    Contributed by John Dobbs on Jun 21, 2023
     | 2,511 views

    This is a common myth that is repeated often - it indicates that our personal happiness is the paramount good - what God wants more than anything else. Like each of the myths we will explore, there is a kernel of truth in there - but it is overcome by the misunderstanding of the saying.

    - MYTHS CHRISTIANS SOMETIMES BELIEVE - God Just Wants Me To Be Happy Introduction We are continuing our series of Myths Christians Sometimes Believe. In the last message, we talked about the myth that “God Won’t Give Me More Than I Can Handle.” Our myth in this message is a common one: “God Just ...read more

    You see anxiety is like a sickness. It is a spiritual illness that needs a cure. And we have in these verses Philippians 4:4-7 the prescription that God gives for an anxious heart.
