Christmas Cures Our Fears

Tom Messer - Trinity Baptist Church

In this powerful message, we're reminded that the Christmas story is more than just a holiday tale—it's the cure for our deepest fears. The scripture from Luke 2:8-11 paints a vivid picture of the shepherds' terror when confronted with God's glory. This fear represents the heart wound we all carry—a sense of inadequacy and separation from God. But the good news is that Jesus came as both Savior and Lord to heal this wound. By surrendering our lives to Him, we find freedom from fear and anxiety. The message challenges us to move beyond negotiating with God and instead fully surrender to His lordship. It's a call to recognize our need for a Savior and to allow Christ to take control of our lives, bringing peace to our restless hearts.
