In other words, do not let us begin by exaggerating the novelty of our situation. Believe me, dear sir or madam, you and all whom you love were already sentenced to death before the atomic bomb was invented: and quite a high percentage of us were going to die in unpleasant ways. We had, indeed, one very great advantage over our ancestors—anesthetics; but we have that still. It is perfectly ridiculous to go about whimpering and drawing long faces because the scientists have added one more chance of painful and premature death to a world which already bristled with such chances and in which death itself was not a chance at all, but a certainty. This is the first point to be made: and the first action to be taken is to pull ourselves together. If we are all going to be destroyed by an atomic bomb, let that bomb when it comes find us doing sensible and human things—praying, working, teaching, reading, listening to music, bathing the children, playing tennis, chatting to our friends over a pint and a game of darts—not huddled together like frightened sheep and thinking about bombs. They may break our bodies (a microbe can do that) but they need not dominate our minds” CS LEWIS On Living in an Atomic Age” (1948) in Present Concerns: Journalistic Essays †••• “For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind..” 1 Tim.1.7 NKJV.••• Where does fear come from?••• What are at least two negative psychological maladies that can affect anyone not grounded in Our Rock, the Creator of universe, Christ Jesus?••• How does one’s peer group affect fear?••• Is there an assault on the Christian mind from forces that seek to control what a believer thinks?••• Why is there no fear of death for the biblical Christian?••• What fear leads to quite profitable insurance businesses?••• Which fear causes attachment issues?••• What fear prevents many young people form marrying?••• What is the difference between a normal fear and an abnormal fear?••• Why are a couple of reasons why Adam was afraid of God?••• What type of perceptions cause fear?••• Are you going to ask your small group to pray that you will be able to reduce fear in your life through faith with the power of Holy Spirit? ••• Pastor Otuno expounds on this and much more on the exciting journey of Fresh Encounter Radio Podcast originally aired on October 19, 2019 on WNQM, Nashville Quality Ministries and WWCR World Wide Christian Radio broadcast to all 7-continents on this big beautiful blue marble, earth, floating through space.
