This sermon, "Fear of God" (Part 5 of our UNAFRAID series), addresses beneficial anxiety. Join us as LifePoint Co-Pastor, Dr. Thomas Childs, discusses a righteous form of anxiety rooted in the reverence for God. Citing Proverbs 1:7, which states, "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom," the sermon underscores that a profound respect and awe for God is foundational to true understanding. Deep reverence for God brings assurance and freedom from fear, even in the face of life's challenges. This sermon calls believers to cultivate a healthy fear of God, which will lead to wisdom and a life aligned with the Lord's divine purposes.

In "Anxiety and Money", part 4 of our UNAFRAID sermon series, Dr. Thomas Childs (Co-Pastor) explores the tension between financial concerns and spiritual well-being, emphasizing that wealth should not be the foundation of your security or identity. Co-Pastor Thomas warns that an obsession with money can lead to anxiety, hinder faith, and choke spiritual growth. Using biblical teachings, this sermon encourages a shift in perspective—trusting in God’s provision rather than being consumed by financial worries. The series calls believers to seek contentment through faith rather than material accumulation, reinforcing that true peace comes from reliance on God, not wealth.

​The sermon titled "On Worries of the World" delves into the pervasive issue of anxiety, particularly focusing on how worldly concerns can stifle spiritual growth. Drawing from the Parable of the Sower in Matthew 13, Co-Pastor Dr. Thomas Childs emphasizes that the "worries of this life" can act as thorns, choking the Word and rendering believers unfruitful. The message distinguishes between personal anxieties and global concerns, cautioning that an overemphasis on worldly issues can divert attention from one's spiritual journey. By maintaining a godly perspective and prioritizing one's relationship with Christ, believers can prevent external worries from hindering their spiritual fruitfulness.​

​This sermon titled "On Peoples’ Opinions" addresses the anxiety stemming from concerns about others' perceptions. It emphasizes that while some fears are valid, many anxieties arise from undue emphasis on others' approval. Drawing from scriptures like 1 Thessalonians 2:4, which states, "We aren’t trying to please people, but... God," this sermon encourages believers to prioritize God's approval over human validation. It highlights that societal norms often mislead individuals into seeking fulfillment through others' acceptance, a pursuit that leaves one perpetually unsatisfied. By examining Jesus' example, who remained steadfast in His mission despite external pressures, the sermon urges believers to align their actions with God's will, finding identity and peace in divine purpose rather than in fluctuating human opinions.
