Passage: Luke 12:1-12 — The three teachings in our passage today have one thing in common: Jesus is teaching his disciples how to be free from their fear of people. If you are crippled by the weight of anxiety about what other people will think of you, say about you, or do to you, this is the teaching that will free you. The fear of God, rightly understood and applied, will free you from your fear of others. That’s the big idea: Fear God, Not People. And we’ll see three progressive ways to be free from fear of others: Seek God’s Approval, Fear God’s Power, Acknowledge God’s Son.
