We've heard the Christmas story so much it's probably become "old hat" by now. This session let's look at it from the standpoint of fear. Because all the principle players were told — "DO NOT BE AFRAID."

And like Mary, we have no reason to fear. That little baby grew up to be a man who satisfied every requirement of God's wrath. Because of Jesus and the salvation God provides through His death and resurrection, man can receive God's grace simply because He chose to give it to him.

DO. NOT. BE. AFRAID.
