Leadership

In the Fire and the Fear - Part 1

Apr 27, 2025    Blake Larson

This message shows us that Jesus has always been near, even before Bethlehem. In the Old Testament, we find moments known as "Christophanies", where the Son of God appears to walk with, speak to, or rescue His people in times of heavy trial. In this sermon, we look at how Jesus stepped into the furnace with three faithful men in Babylon, called Abraham’s name on a lonely mountain, and revealed Himself to a couple gripped by fear in Judges. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by anxiety or pressure, or questioned where God was in a painful moment, this message will remind you that even when we don’t recognize Him… He’s there. He walks through fire. He waits in fear. And He’s been with you all along.
