Summary

“Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.” We are all familiar with that verse, but what does it look like to live with the peace God promises? In this program, guest teacher Tim Lundy takes us to Luke chapter 2 and the angel's stunning announcement to some humble shepherds. Discover how this declaration of joy and hope can transform your experience of Christmas—and bring lasting peace into your everyday life.

Main Points Fear manifests in various ways:
  • Anxiety
  • Worry
  • Anger
  • Driven-ness
“Fear not” to the shepherds --Luke 2:8-20
  • Good news for all people – Jesus came
  • Peace is here
  • Jesus fulfilled prophecy --Micah 5:2; Isaiah 9
Question: Are you experiencing that genuine peace?

The problem: We often take the command “fear not” and try to address it without the promise. We can’t do anything on our own.

The solution: You need more of Jesus
  • Be filled with the Holy Spirit.
  • You want to be filled with Jesus, then pray.
  • Seek His Kingdom.
  • Connect with His Church and His Word.
