One common reason we sin and experience negative emotions is that we crave the approval of others or fear their rejection or disapproval. We ‘need’ the acceptance of a parent, boss, friend, spouse, etc., so we are controlled by them and their opinion of us. The Bible’s term for this is ‘fear of man’. The answer to fear of man is fear of God. We need a bigger, better, more glorious view of God.
Courtney Nolly-Charters teaches from Exodus 3 & 4 on the life-changing truth: God is Glorious… so I don’t have to fear others.
