    About this audiobook

    For many people, worry, anxiety, and fear are constant companions: fear of death, fear of danger, fear of disease. And too often, these fears are crippling, keeping us from the life God has called us to live.

    But it doesn’t have to be that way, says Dr. David Jeremiah. As Christians, we have been given all we need in order to face down even the most frightening, unexpected, and overwhelming obstacles in life.

    In his new book, What Are You Afraid Of? Dr. Jeremiah explores the top ten fears that are holding so many of us back from the life God has called us to live and shares the supernatural secrets for facing down these fears with faith.

      I received this book in exchange for an honest review @ theindigoquill.blogspot.com .

      Most of us struggle with fear of some type, whether it be spiders, heights, insecurity, disease, or even death. Dr. David Jeremiah gives us a comprehensive look at identifying the top ten fears that Christians seem to encounter the most:

      Disaster: the Fear of Natural Calamity
      Disease: the Fear of Serious Illness
      Debt: the Fear of Financial Collapse
      Defeat: the Fear of Failure
      Disconnection: the Fear of Being Alone
      Disapproval: the Fear of Rejection
      Danger: the Fear of Sudden Trouble
      Depression: the Fear of Mental Breakdown
      Death: the Fear of Dying
      Deity: the Fear of God

      Through each chapter, Dr. Jeremiah tackles how one might be able to redirect their focus from being afraid to something greater and more productive to overcome whatever it is they may be dreading. The pages are filled with legitimate real-life stories of people who have justified reasons of being afraid of these things, but even in the worst-case scenarios they don't have to be jaded for life.

      I thought this book was well organized and easy to read other than the lengthy chapters. However, I think it could be used more as a reference rather than a complete read-through. The kind of people I see reading this book are those who are struggling to overcome their fears and may simply open to the chapter(s) that apply to them at the time. I can even use it for myself.

      It seems to be well researched and you can tell that Dr. Jeremiah has a great deal of experience to show as well. Facts and experience always make a good pair.

      Great book! Definitely one that I will be keeping on my shelf for future reference.

      "We have a choice: we can follow the gods of this world and live with fear that we'll be caught in the outcomes that inevitably fall on all disobedience, or we can follow God and His Word exclusively and live without fear." (David Jeremiah, What Are You Afraid Of?)

      This book covers different fears we can have: The fear of natural calamity, the fear of serious illness, the fear of financial collapse, the fear of failure, the fear of being alone, the fear of rejection, the fear of sudden trouble, the fear of mental breakdown, the fear of dying and the fear of God. As you can see many fears are addressed.

      I think the greatest lesson I learned in this book is that those who put their trust in God have no need to fear. He says, "To understand why God is the answer to all our fears, we must understand what the Bible says about fear. And it says alot. It tells us more than three hundred times not to fear. "Fear not" is its most frequently repeated command. The word afraid occurs more than two hundred times, and fear more than four hundred. And lest you think our Bible hereos were fearless, more than two hundred individuals in Scripture are said to have been afraid. And not all these were the "bad guys"; many were the main characters-David, Paul, Timothy, and others."

      The cure for fear is the Word of God because faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God (See Romans 10:17). The opposite of fear is faith. Faith will destroy every fear in your life. We weild the sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God, and cut down every fear in Jesus' Name. Amen.

      One if my favorites. Always exceptionally poignant. Dr. Jeremiah writes like you’re having a conversation with him.
