Today Dot and Cara unpack a seeming contradiction: why are we told not to fear over and over in Scripture, but then commanded to “Fear the Lord”? By looking at the heart of what Jesus meant in Matthew 10:28, Dot explains the difference between these instructions and offers the beautiful encouragement that increasing our fear of the Lord will actually decrease our fear of man and of our circumstances. Settle in with a cup of coffee and join us for this quick conversation!
