Monsters in the closet. Ghosts in the dark.
Remember feeling afraid when you were little? Unfortunately, we don’t grow out of it. Now that we’re adults, we just have new things to be afraid of.
But how does that square with having faith in Jesus? After all, Jesus says, “Be not afraid!”

Well, here’s the thing: Jesus did NOT come to take away everything you’re afraid of.
