As the ministry of The Trinity Church increases and moves temporarily online, Pastor Mark, Grace, and family will be releasing a special series of “Ask Pastor Mark” videos each week to help answer pertinent questions during this time! This question is about how to avoid having panic attacks because of this stressful situation and how to face the fear.
A few months back, I began teaching verse-by-verse through the amazing Old Testament book of Daniel. In God’s perfect timing, the recent crisis that has the globe feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, and uncertain is precisely what Daniel experienced.
In this talk, Pastor Mark gives four categories for how to handle it when you have a decision to make on whether to move forward or accept what you can’t control.
When there is nothing you can do, there is always one thing you can do – pray!
As the ministry of The Trinity Church increases and moves temporarily online, Pastor Mark, Grace, and family will be releasing a special series of “Ask Pastor Mark” videos each week to help answer pertinent questions during this time! This question is about how, as a pastor and ministry couple, you can balance caring for your home and church family in times like this.
Do you find yourself worn out, exhausted, and overwhelmed lately? Most everyone on the planet does. The question is, how can we process all that we are hearing and fearing so that even if things are not well around us, things are well within us?
You probably feel exactly as Daniel did. He got bad news that was completely beyond his control. Around the world, houses of worship have been closed for some weeks. In Daniel’s day, their version of the church was the Temple and it had been closed for some seventy years.
The storyline of the news lately should sound eerily familiar to every Christian. We have been told that we have a world war against an unseen enemy. For Christians, we have always known that sin has infected everyone, is a global pandemic, causes death, and needs a cure, hence our love for the risen defeater of death, Jesus Christ.
In the midst of crisis, Real Men can look to Christ to turn isolation, complex grief, and fear into solitude, lamenting, and faith.

This question is about how to talk to your kids about current events without causing them to fear.
Standing before the mightiest king on earth in Babylon, which is modern day Iraq, an elderly castrated slave named Daniel says something completely jaw-dropping. Over every king and kingdom, prince and prefect, elected official and nation is the Most High God who is in charge of whoever is in charge. Furthermore, for reasons we rarely understand, he causes leaders and empires to rise or fall for His purposes.
Don’t get caught up in power, praise, possessions, or pleasure as it passes quickly. Daniel got a Rick Ross hip-hop Halloween costume and job promotion that lasted only a few minutes before God toppled the nation.
