Hey, hey, welcome to the church home podcast with Judah Smith. My amazing husband. My name is Chelsea,

and he is about to give you an incredible message, and I know we are going to hear about Jesus and his love for you.

And if there's anything we can do as a church home community, we would love to serve you.

You can come to churchhome.org slash pastor chat, and we would love to have a conversation with you

and just meet you exactly where you are. Enjoy the message. Well, it is the end of April.

Here we are. Thank you for joining us for Easter last week. If you didn't get a chance to do that,

it is available as we speak. It's a pretty cool setting, kind of old vintage chapel.

I think you'll like it. We talked about eight days after Easter and how that day really affects

me and how I relate more to that day. So check that out if you get the chance. To conclude the month of April,

I want to talk about fear. I want to talk about fear. Everybody has fear of some kind.

But how do hope and fear interact? If you feel like your life is led more by fear than led by hope,

this message is dedicated to you. If you've ever felt like fear is leading, more than hope is

leading or more than faith is leading, this sermon is dedicated to you. If you feel more

fearful than you have ever been in your whole life, then I dedicate this message to you. Fear is a real

thing, and yet it is a fickle thing.

What are you afraid of right now?

What are you most afraid of right now?

What is keeping you up at night?

As I said a couple of weeks ago, I had a friend asked me how I was sleeping, which is, of course, what older people do.

And that's how they ask. Those are the questions they ask each other.

And I hadn't been sleeping very good.

I've been sleeping better now, but I haven't, I wasn't sleeping very good.
