Freedom from Fear: Finding the Courage to Act, Love, and Be Book

Freedom From Fear Finding the Courage to Love, Act, and Be Reverend Forrest Church Based upon decades of counseling experience by one of our best-known spiritual leaders, a guide to the fears we face and the ways we can overcome them ranklin Roosevelt told us that what we most have to fear is fear itself. Forrest Church shows that we can overcome it. He begins by identifying the five kinds we face in life: fright (physical fear); worry (intellectual fear); guilt (fear of getting caught); insecurity (fear of inadequacy); and dread (fear of death). Each has its own logic, but their effect singly or col-lectively is paralysis. Conquering fear requires courage-to love, to act, and to be. In this luminously uplifting yet com-pletely practical book, Church: -Summarizes the major books about fear on the market and shows what they have to offer -Reveals how some of our favorite books-To Kill a Mock-ingbird or The Little Prince-contains keys to fighting fear -Provides group-discussion points. Freedom From Fear is a life-changing book. 'Church offers a formidable intelligence and a courageous honesty to guide us on the most important quest any of us will undertake.' -Rabbi Harold Kushner, author of When Bad Things Happen to Good People on Bringing God Home REVEREND FORREST CHURCH's previous books include Bringing God Home and The American Creed. He is senior minister at All Souls Church in New York City. Self-Help/ Inspiration 0-312-32533-9 $22.95 $33.95 Canadian 51/2" x 81/4" / 224 pages JulyRead More
