You aren’t going to be able to think your way out of fear, because fear is an irrational force. You will have to leap with your heart racing, again and again, until you have carved out a new comfort zone in the arena of your deepest desires. You will have to learn to live with it, the invisible thing within you that wants to shield you from anything unknown. You will have to learn to speak to it, to comfort it, but above all, to defy it. Again and again, until you have built within you a new home.”

-Brianna West, The Pivot Year

This Advent Season, we’ll be reading 1 John 4:7-21 to deepen our understanding of God’s love for us. I started on this grand adventure about four years ago. At the time, I thought I understood “that Jesus loves me,” but as I came to learn, I didn’t. I’d love for you to join me by reading 1 John 4:7-21.
