Every Hair

Read Matthew 10:24-39

Pentecost +3

In this well known Gospel text from Matthew, Jesus is telling us that fear is the opposite of faith. And yet, fear, unlike faith hangs on us like humidity on a hot summer’s night. Fear coats us from front and back and attracts all kinds of grunge and stains. So that even when it dries it’s still sticky. Fear has a terrible effect on the heart, spirit and soul.

Join me, as we discover together how Jesus’ words about fear and faith can speak into our lives today.
