Summary

Rejecting God has brought tremendous suffering in our nation. But where does this rejection stem from? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the fear of God—holding a high respect for the Lord that ultimately affects your thoughts, desires, and behaviors. Pastor Allen teaches from Scripture to demonstrate the link between respecting God’s authority and receiving His blessings. In our culture today, it’s unpopular to live with a fear of God, and we see that impact our personal choices surrounding topics like money, sex, power, and our children. Fearing God is a learned response that grows as we pursue and honor Him.
