What if fear is the new brave? That's the question that you need answered if you are living afraid. Finding courage begins with fear itself-fear of the Lord. I Choose Brave reveals a countercultural plan to help you where you are-knee-deep in fears of parenting, the future, your marriage, and a world that feels unstable. When you're feeling fearful, the last thing you need is a social-media meme telling you to simply "power through" your fears. In I Choose Brave, Katie Westenberg digs deep into Scripture and shows that finding the courage to overcome our fears must start with fear of the Lord. Hundreds of passages speak to this foundational truth, yet we have somehow relegated them to antiquity. In sharing her own compelling story of facing her worst fear, Katie serves up theological truth with relatable application. In this book, you will discover a fresh take on an old truth that displaces fear once and for all; understand why the culture's idea of "fearlessness" is a farce; and access the holy courage you were made for. With this new knowledge comes tremendous freedom. Hidden in the cleft of the Rock, the One truly worthy of our fear, you will begin to understand the only path to real courage.
