Anxiety has become the accepted price of living in a fast-paced world, but the popularity of anti-anxiety medications, meditation techniques and other stress relievers indicates that it’s spinning out of control. In Free From Worry, readers will discover that stress and anxiety are not new phenomena—the Apostle Paul had a lot to say about how to deal with them. This interactive study, ideal for individuals or small groups, takes a close look at the worry epidemic and turns to God’s Word to find its remedy. Free From Worry includes eight weeks of study. Topics include “Call It Sin,” “Your New Mind,” “Thanks in All Things,” “Staying Free” and much more. Each week’s study examines a root of anxiety, digs into Scripture to find out what God’s Word has to say about it, offers readers the opportunity to reflect on their own struggle with worry and suggests practical action steps to help readers apply what they have learned.

It's almost Christmas, 1944. In Knoxville, Tennessee, a frustrated mother with a secret and a teenage daughter with a dream take in two young roomers who work at a nearby bomb-making plant. Both girls are asserting their independence, one in the company of servicemen, the other as a contestant in a Miss Bombshell U.S.A. competition, an action that puts her at odds with her father, a preacher in a small Virginia town. Along the way, the teenage daughter, who worries more about rumors of an asteroid said to be streaking toward nearby Chattanooga than a vicious war raging around the world, bamboozles her mother into allowing her to attend a Frank Sinatra concert at the local USO. When she brings home a young war-bound Marine as naive as herself, this colorful collection of characters is pulled apart, then mended with humor, romance, twists, turns and revelations. As these women struggle, grow and ultimately succeed, at least for one fragile moment in time, they remind us that we're all "family" and, in each other's company, we may find ourselves.

Paying tribute to all the things that women do, this inspirational guide, filled with wit, wisdom, and real life stories, urges readers to harness the power of their dreams to create a world they would want their children to inherit. Original.
