Fear isn’t something you allow in. It’s already there. And the longer you ignore it, the louder it gets — until it’s so blaring you can’t function. Mark Hattas shares the practical prayer framework from a live Church of the Beatitudes gathering for acknowledging fear, breathing through it, and inviting God to reveal what’s actually underneath. In this short teaching from The O Coalition’s Tuesday Gathering, Mark unpacks one of the most counterintuitive ideas in the Beatitudes practice: that resisting an emotion doesn’t make it go away — it distorts it. Like a telephone game where the original message gets garbled the further it travels, suppressed fear distorts God’s message until what you receive has nothing to do with what was originally meant for you. The practice Mark shares is simple, practical, and works on any emotion — not just fear. In this teaching: Why fear is an alarm clock, not an intruder — and what ignoring it costs you The difference between allowing fear in and acknowledging it’s already there A practical prayer for acknowledging fear in your body and breathing through it How to set the intensity of an emotion — “go to a level four” — and feel it soften What to do when dissociated emotions come on hot and overwhelming Inviting God into the fear to reveal the original message it was carrying The telephone game — how suppression distorts God’s communication Why the message God sends might be as simple as “go make a peanut butter sandwich” — and why that matters If you’re carrying fear right now — or any emotion you’ve been pushing away — this 8-minute teaching is for you. ⏱️ CHAPTERS 00:00 – Fear Is Already There — Not Something You Let In 00:14 – What Happened at the Live Gathering 00:19 – Join the Next Gathering Free: churchofthebeatitudes.com 00:34 – The Beatitudes and Allowing Emotions to Surface 00:43 – Resistance Creates Distortion 01:09 – The Alarm Clock Analogy: Ignored Fear Gets Louder 01:54 – What Is the Fear Trying to Get Your Attention To? 02:05 – The Prayer: Acknowledge Fear Is Present 02:30 – Invite the Holy Breath Into the Hidden Places 03:01 – Make Your Home in the Breath 03:09 – Tell Fear: “I Recognize You’re Here” 03:17 – Set the Intensity: “Go to a Level Four” 03:25 – Watch Fear Soften When It Feels Heard 03:35 – Invite God In: “What Is the Message?” 04:04 – When Dissociated Emotions Come On Hot 04:27 – If You Breathe, the Emotion Moves at the Right Pace 04:33 – The Alarm We Ignored Too Long 05:00 – Invite God In: “What Are You Trying to Reveal?” 05:33 – The Telephone Game: How Suppression Distorts the Message 06:03 – Allow Emotions and Invite God In 06:18 – A Centered State Opens You to Transformative Truth 06:30 – The Message Might Be: Go Make a Peanut Butter Sandwich 07:08 – When Patterns Collapse, More Goodness Comes In 07:15 – Join: churchofthebeatitudes.com 07:36 – Become Pillars of Transformed Humanity 08:01 – Bless You 📖 O Coalition books: theocoalition.com/books ⛪ Church of the Beatitudes (free): churchofthebeatitudes.com Subscribe for weekly conversations at the intersection of faith, mental health, and real healing.
