    The paramount of Christianity is love. We have been taught what it is, exhorted to practice it and yet many still do not practice it when it is most needed.

That said, some talk about it seemingly to the exclusion of other vital areas of our walk in the Lord. 2. Conversely, some refrain from talking about it or do not ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,748 views

    This sermon gives the recipe for conquering fear. It also has a radically new interpretation of the command, "Stand Still." I used it for Halloween but it is applicable any time.

    CONQUERING FEAR Exodus 13:13-14 Since today is HALLOWEEN, I decided to go with that theme. However, when I went on sermon sites... looking for ideas... all of the resources were ANTI-HALLOWEEN. They all talked about how it is a pagan holiday and is about worshiping evil spirits, or Satan. Well, I ...read more
