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. ( )

Nine of our greatest fears are identified and a biblical plan for overcoming them is laid out.
