Fearless

I had the pleasure of reviewing Max Lucados’ new book “Fearless”. Lucado tackles the various fears we struggle with in life. Each chapter was focused on specific topics of fear, and backed up with biblical references. I have many fears that were covered in this book. Lucado gave me a different perspective on how I was choosing to react to these fears. Lucado uses scripture to remind us of the miraculous things God can do for us. He uses accounts from the bible to make comparisons between our troubles and the troubles of the people in the bible. God is always near us, just waiting for us to reach out to him. Lucado reminds us that God can take away all of our fears. Lucado has sprinkled in plenty of humor and personal stories, which make the book more personable. I especially enjoyed the various bible verses and poems found in this book. The discussion questions at the end of the book really helped me to evaluate my own fears on a deeper level. I will definitely refer to this book when my fears and anxieties begin to take hold of me again. This book would be a wonderful gift for a friend who may be struggling with their fears. Buy this book, it is worth the money. We all need to rid ourselves of the fear that hurts us.
