For people wanting release from all kinds of fears, this text contains 48 readings on different aspects of how the Bible deals with fear, starting with the temptation of Jesus in the desert and ending with Mary in the garden on Resurrection Morning. Along the way it explores some of the many ways in which God meets us right where we are, no matter what our circumstances, and how he helps us learn for ourselves the meaning of "the truth will set you free". Section headings are: where we begin; fear of failure; Gideon: a frightened man with a big task; disciples: a motley crew; questioning; hope; and passion. The book is aimed at those looking for a gentle, humorous way into Bible reading for themselves or others.
