Fear is the rejection of faith. Fear brings worry. Worry robs the body of rest. Worry has no place in the life of a Christian. Fear and worry are doubt manifested in our lives, doubt that does not exist where there is faith. In Theres No Room for Doubt: The Just Shall Live by Faith, author and ordained minister Hilda Marie Barton shows us the path to conquering fear and worrythe path to faith in Jesus Christ. Through His Word in the Bible, Jesus Christ gives us the roadmap to finding our way out of our problems, away from grief and misery and toward feeling whole and renewed. Each chapter of Theres No Room for Doubt focuses on a pivotal theme in the Bible and discusses relating passages to help readers understand these themes. Bartons insights are accessible and wise, and she does not hesitate to be truthful, even if that truth is painful. There are as many problems in the world as there are people to have them, but there is one solution for every problem: stand in faith. When we walk with God and feel His strength and love, there is truly no room for doubt. He has it all under control and will sustain usand that is something to believe.

Suffering and exclusion are normal in a believer's life. At least they should be. This was certainly Jesus's experience. And it's the experience of countless Christians around the world today.No matter your social location or set of experiences, the biblical letter of 1 Peter wants to redefine your expectations and reinvigorate your hope.Drawing on years of ministry in a Muslim-majority nation, Elliot Clark guides us through Peter's letter with striking insights for today. Whether we're in positions of power or weakness, influence or marginalization, all of us are called to live and witness as exiles in a world that's not our home. This is our job description. This is our mission. This is our opportunity.A church in exile doesn't have to be a church in retreat.

Overly concerned about what people think of you? Edward T. Welch uncovers the spiritual dimension of people-pleasing—what the Bible calls fear of man—and points the way through a true knowledge of God, ourselves, and others.

A revolutionary guide to acknowledging fear and developing the tools we need to build a healthy relationship with this confusing emotion—and use it as a positive force in our lives. We all feel fear. Yet we are often taught to ignore it, overcome it, push past it. But to what benefit? This is the essential question that guides Kristen Ulmer’s remarkable exploration of our most misunderstood emotion in The Art of Fear. Once recognized as the best extreme skier in the world (an honor she held for twelve years), Ulmer knows fear well. In this conversation-changing book, she argues that fear is not here to cause us problems—and that in fact, the only true issue we face with fear is our misguided reaction to it (not the fear itself). Rebuilding our experience with fear from the ground up, Ulmer starts by exploring why we’ve come to view it as a negative. From here, she unpacks fear and shows it to be just one of 10,000 voices that make up our reality, here to help us come alive alongside joy, love, and gratitude. Introducing a mindfulness tool called “Shift,” Ulmer teaches readers how to experience fear in a simpler, more authentic way, transforming our relationship with this emotion from that of a draining battle into one that’s in line with our true nature. Influenced by Ulmer’s own complicated relationship with fear and her over 15 years as a mindset facilitator, The Art of Fear will reconstruct the way we react to and experience fear—empowering us to easily and permanently address the underlying cause of our fear-based problems, and setting us on course to live a happier, more expansive future.
