 In "Fear" (Deuteronomy 1:19–33), Pastor Brent Snook launches the new PTSD of the Christian Life series — Practical Traumatic Spiritual Development. Drawing from Israel's failure at the edge of the Promised Land, he identifies four results of fear: it refuses God's plan, ruins our perspective, restrains God's people, and rejects God's promises. He then offers four practical ways to resist fear — face it, forsake it as sin, find God's promises, and formulate a closer walk with God. The surprising conclusion? The opposite of fear is not courage — it is love.
