Book review: Fearless by Max Lucado


Book Description

Each sunrise seems to bring fresh reasons for fear.

They're talking layoffs at work, slowdowns in the economy, flare-ups in the Middle East, turnovers at headquarters, downturns in the housing market, upswings in global warming. The plague of our day, terrorism, begins with the word terror. Fear, it seems, has taken up a hundred-year lease on the building next door and set up shop. Oversized and rude, fear herds us into a prison of unlocked doors. Wouldn't it be great to walk out?

Imagine your life, wholly untouched by angst. What if faith, not fear, was your default reaction to threats? If you could hover a fear magnet over your heart and extract every last shaving of dread, insecurity, or doubt, what would remain? Envision a day, just one day, where you could trust more and fear less.

Can you imagine your life without fear?

Fearless by Max Lucado is a lesson on how to live fear free in a world of fear created by one's self. How would your life be if you could live without the day to day fears that so many people have? Would you be a more productive person? Would you finally be able to breathe easier knowing how unfounded those fears really are?

From the first chapter on the author describes the many fears we as a people have either individually or as a people. From the fear of not succeeding to the fear of the economy not bouncing back to the fear of not being like everyone else. Each chapter takes those fears and applies life lessons as well as scriptures from the bible that shows that the things people fear are not such a big thing in the grand scheme of things.

Overall this is a book about inspiration and inspiring others to look inside themselves and to become less fearful. I would recommend this book to anyone needing to know that they are not the only ones in the world who have fear. The message in the book came through loud and clear; to live life without fear, is to live a life truly blessed. You just need to have a little faith.
