About this episode

In this Father's Day sermon, Pastor Tim Shaw explores the tension between fear and faith through miraculous stories from the Gospel of Luke.

In this Father’s Day sermon, First Prez Associate Pastor Tim Shaw examines the tension between fear and faith by recounting four miraculous stories from the Gospel of Luke. He highlights how Jesus demonstrated divine authority by calming a violent storm, liberating a possessed man, healing a chronically ill woman, and raising a young girl from the dead. He illustrates how we often retreat to safety rather than embracing the spiritual adventure of following Christ. The message emphasizes that while life's challenges are inevitable and often terrifying, believers can find peace knowing Jesus holds onto them through every trial. Ultimately, we can move beyond our anxieties by anchoring our trust in Jesus. Download the series booklet here First Prez website
