    Inside Out: Worry Series

    Contributed by Lynn Malone on Jan 28, 2016
    based on 3 ratings
     | 8,110 views

    Fear is a healthy emotion. Fear can protect us…often from ourselves, but an unguarded fear only causes us anxiety, or worry. Worry is incredibly unhealthy. This message focuses on overcoming worry.

    Fear is one of the characters personified in the mind of Riley Anderson in the film Inside Out. Fear is portrayed as a tall, lanky, lavender skinned character with a long nose and a penchant for wearing magenta bow ties and purple slacks. He is at one and the same time, fearful, nervous, timid, ...read more

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Aug 15, 2017
     | 8,770 views

    What we see in our minds is critical to our ability to walk in this life as Jesus did when He was on earth. But far too many of us allow "movies" to play that should be deleted.

    So many people are gripped with all kinds of fears, one of the major ones being the fear of death. Learn what Jesus did to set us free from this daunting fear of death, to give us hope for eternity.
