When we fear God rightly, we are freed from fearing man.

Hebrews 12 calls us to throw off everything that hinders and run with endurance… but how do you actually do that in real life? What weight are you holding onto?

You've probably said these words before… "Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name." Maybe you learned it as a kid, heard it in church, or have recited it without fully understanding what it means.
