I had this book for more than a year already and I never gave so much thought about it. But just recently, I got so overwhelmed with my TBR and my current reads, so I decided to drop everything and start over. I just picked up this book because I had it already for so long and decided to give it another try. And boy I was so wrong for not reading it seriously before. It’s like the words of the author were handpicked from my own personal experiences. I had learned so much lessons and so much beautiful thoughts worth treasuring. This book helped me have a better understanding of plenty of things in life. This is truly one of the most beautiful self-help/religious book that I have ever read. ( ) no reviews | add a review
Find freedom in an age of anxiety. Let's face it: we are afraid. Our world is riddled with fear-inducing headlines, financial meltdowns, family crises, and phobias of every stripe. No wonder the New York Times now reports one in ten Americans is now taking antidepressant or anxiety medication. So how do we cope or even succeed in a world spinning out of control? As someone who has battled panic attacks and anxiety most of his life, Lance Hahn can relate. In How to Live in Fear, Lance tackles the pervasive problem of fear and panic head-on by inviting readers into his world. In this genuine and practical book, he invites readers into the life of a pastor living with anxiety disorder. Through humorous personal stories--like losing it on an airplane or collapsing onstage as he is about to preach--Lance will win over readers with his transparency. He will also share the remedies that have helped him recover and overcome throughout the years. How to Live in Fear is a public intervention of sorts. We need to talk about this issue, especially the church-at-large. Millions of people suffer from anxiety disorders, and the church has done little to make them feel normal. Many Christians now take medication privately but keep it a secret under the shame of being viewed as a failure. Lance willingly bares his soul in order to get the conversation started. He firmly believes the church should not only recognize the issue, but also help believers reconcile the guilt of being a Christian while dealing with dread and anxiety Filled with practical tips and advice, and full of relevant scriptures, How to Live in Fear gives readers the tools to relax in the face of fear--real or imagined. Lance will show readers that while he may still encounter bouts of panic, he has never let his disorder stop him from living a full life. No library descriptions found. |
