Afraid to Ask

Some questions feel too complicated, controversial, or uncomfortable to ask in church—but the questions we’re afraid to ask are exactly the ones Jesus isn’t afraid to answer.
We live in a fractured world shaped by fear, anxiety, power struggles, and division. Questions about immigration, authority, identity, uncertainty, and disagreement influence how we see God, the Church, and one another.

In this five-week series, we’ll bring these difficult questions into the light and explore how Scripture helps us respond with the character of Jesus. This series isn’t about promoting a political party or winning cultural arguments. It’s about becoming disciples who see people as image-bearers before issues, neighbors before threats, and fellow believers before demographics.

Together, we’ll learn how to practice compassion without compromise, courage without cruelty, generosity without fear, and unity without uniformity.
