Fear of Moving Forward

Hello, my friend. We all like to have a sense of control over our future, don’t we? We draw up our plans, we set our goals, and we start marching toward them. But then, life happens. A family crisis arises, a parent needs care, or a door we expected to open suddenly slams shut. In those moments, fear has a way of paralyzing us, tempting us to retreat to the ‘safer route’ where everything feels predictable.

In this video, ‘Fear of Moving Forward,’ my friend Rhome Dyck shares a very personal crossroad from his own life. While he was a full-time seminary student, he was faced with the responsibility of caring for his mother. It meant discarding his own carefully laid plans and trusting God with a path he hadn’t anticipated. If you’re standing at a crossroad today, feeling the tug of fear and the temptation to play it safe, I want to encourage you: God’s will is rarely the easiest path, but it is always the most rewarding. Let’s talk about how to move forward when the future feels uncertain.

From Promise to Presence

Everlasting Light: A Journey from Promise to Presence

From December 1 to 25, let the advent devotional Everlasting Light move you into a spirit of waiting, reflection, and preparation for Christ’s arrival.

Written by our Spanish pastor Carlos Zazueta (and also available in Spanish), this book includes quotes from Pastor Chuck to recenter your heart each day.

I've been listening to the story of Jonah, particularly of his stubbornness and his disobedience. Pastor Chuck, I was acting like Jonah, and I am stubborn. When I decided to obey, God was there. I believe that God wanted me to experience the blessing of obedience. Thank you for your teachings. God bless you always. —C. G.
