Overcoming Fear-Based Religion
Dr. Owen Strachan talks about how fear-based religion operates on the premise of control. However, the gospel of Jesus Christ frees believers from fear-based systems. The fear of God is necessary for knowledge and wisdom, but it is not a terror of God's wrath. Christian fear is rooted in awe and reverence, not in slave-like terror.

Customer Reviews
Thank you for sound, Biblical teaching.
I found through Ray Comfort’s Living Waters podcast and have been listening intently to both. I try to expand my knowledge of the Bible every day but people like you take it to a wonderful level. I am grateful and thankful for what people like you do for the rest of us. You truly appear to have a Godly calling to do this work. It’s hard not to be envious, honestly. I’ll never stop trying to gain further insight while memorizing Scripture. Thank you again. I also thank our Almighty Father for the ability to read His Word. Would you consider numbering your episodes? (Not a criticism, just asking - I don’t create any content like this so I am no expert). Sometimes I will remember which episode # I left off on instead of looking at the date.
Love Owen
He is a genuine, erudite, and strong evangelist. Everyone should be so lucky to have a man like him guiding their local church.
Encouragement in Gods word
Always an encouraging word that speaks in biblical worldview
