Facing Anxiety About the Future

Facing Anxiety About the Future

Have you ever read the Bible, especially prophecy, and simply walked away with some fear or anxiety about the way the future is described? Daniel's vision in chapter 7 leaves him 'terrified, pale and silent." But he is not left there, and neither are we. God gives us much reassurance in his Word. Our Sovereign God is in control of each and every outcome. Join us this Sunday as we move from the stories surrounding the life of Daniel, to the apocalyptic literature which makes up the rest of the book study together.  We will take a look at "Facing Anxiety about the Future."
