Journeying into the Unknown – Liturgy September 29, 2024

By Mark Thomson

Understanding our fear of the unknown helps us know ourselves. The fear of the unknown is a fundamental part of the human experience. From a biological perspective, it's a survival mechanism, helping our ancestors avoid potential environmental threats. From a psychological viewpoint, we fear the unknown because of the anxiety and uncertainty it brings This process involves reframing our perspective on fear, viewing it not as an adversary, but an ally.
