Description of Ed Young Jr., author of Know Fear:

Fear is an unavoidable part of the experience of being human. Anxiety, fear, and phobia encompass us as we embrace the ever-changing, fast-paced technological, and seemingly unstable environment we live in today. And because we are taught that it is weak to show fear, that cowards are despised, and that being a hero means knowing no fear, we try to hide our fears and anxieties. We condemn ourselves and our self-image takes a nosedive with our self-esteem. But Texas pastor and radio personality Ed Young Jr. thinks we are working from a skewed paradigm concerning fear. The way to get back on track is through God. The phrase "fear not" is mentioned over 189 times in the Bible, and God has set forth clear, relevant principles for overcoming anxiety. This book offers a radical perspective on much misunderstood emotion.
