Embracing Fear: Finding Faith in the Fourth Step of Recovery

When life becomes fearful to us, God promises to be with us and to rescue us.
Have you ever wondered if being 'fearless' means never feeling fear at all? In this episode of 'Joyful Recovery in Christ', Pastor Jim Nihiser tackles this very question as he delves into the fourth step of recovery. Contrary to what the term might suggest, Pastor Jim explains that fear is a natural part of the inventory process. But don't worry, he’s got some comforting biblical wisdom to share.
Pastor Jim brings in powerful references from the Bible, like Jesus' reassuring words 'don't be afraid', and God's promise to be our refuge. He emphasizes that it's okay to feel fear; what's important is how we handle it. Through faith and trust in God, we can navigate these fears and come out stronger on the other side. The episode isn't just about identifying fears; it’s about finding strength through prayer and faith.
Pastor Jim highlights the importance of prayers like 'Jesus, Lord, save me', which can be a lifeline during tough times. By relying on God, we can transform our fears into a journey of faith and growth. To make things even more supportive, Pastor Jim invites listeners to join new Christian recovery group meetings every Sunday at 6 PM. These meetings offer a community where you can share your struggles and victories, surrounded by others who understand your journey.
Tune in to this episode for a blend of biblical insights and practical advice on facing your fears. It's a comforting reminder that you are not alone and that with faith, you can overcome any obstacle.
