{"product_id":"9781935273950","title":"Running Scared: Fear, Worry, and the God of Rest","description":"Edward T. Welch reveals God's plan for encouraging those in the  grips of fear. One of the haunting dilemmas of the human condition is  that fear is \"an inescapable feature of earthly life.\" Every person who  has lived on this earth has encountered fear. Tragically, for this  reason our race for the good life finds us all too often \"running  scared.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn his new release, \u003ci\u003eRunning Scared\u003c\/i\u003e, Edward T.  Welch investigates the roots of fear in the human soul and the  ramifications of living in the grips of anxiety, worry, and dread.   Welch encourages readers to discover for themselves that the Bible is  full of beautiful words of comfort for fearful people (and that every  single person is afraid of something). Within the framework of thirty  topical meditations, Welch offers sound biblical theology and  moment-by-moment, thoughtful encouragement for life-saving rescue in the  midst of the heart and mind battlefield of rampant panic-stricken  responses.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis comprehensive primer on the topic of fear, worry,  and the rest of God will have readers retreating to scripture for  invariable constancy, stalwart care, and robust comfort, instead of as  Welch terms it, \"hitting the default switch\" by responding with  characteristic human independence, control, and self-protectiveness. \u003ci\u003eRunning Scared\u003c\/i\u003e affirms that, through Scripture, God speaks directly to our fears:\u003cul\u003e    \u003cli\u003eOn money and possessions\u003c\/li\u003e    \u003cli\u003eOn people and their judgments\u003c\/li\u003e    \u003cli\u003eOn death, pain, and punishment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003eWelch's  lively text provides convincing evidences that humanity's struggle  against active and dormant fears are countless. The good news is that  God provides both the remedy and the cure for this malady in the person  of Jesus Christ, the work of the Holy Spirit, and through powerful,  life-altering promises in Scripture. Far more than merely another  psychology \"self-help\" guide, \u003ci\u003eRunning Scared\u003c\/i\u003e serves as a biblical roadmap to a life of serenity and security.","brand":"New Growth Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47151700902128,"sku":"9781935273950","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781935273950_p0.jpg?v=1763656313","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781935273950","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
