Fear destroys your peace of mind, drains your energy, and can even rob you of your faith. Cheri Fuller understands. For years, fear blocked her from experiencing the fullness of life. But gradually, Cheri learned to release her anxieties to God and embrace a new inner peace. In Fearless, she shares how you too can exchange your fear for faith. She blends her own and other women's stories with biblical wisdom and practical ideas to help you move beyond fear and passionately pursue the life God intends for you. Find the peace and fulfillment you desire as you discover whatever your worries, God will bless you with more freedom than you thought possible! Includes a 15-week Bible study.

Those who struggle with fearfulness/anxiety, I highly recommend you read Fearless: Building a Faith That Overcomes Your Fear by Cheri Fuller. Not only does this book speak, with understanding, directly to your struggles, it provides practical ways to deal with them, insightful stories, and almost every page breathes the reality of God's protection and all-knowing-ness and perfect plan into your heart.
It was easy enough to read, each chapter teaching and forcing you to take a look at your life and your fears. You discover that many people face the same struggles ... see how they dealt with them ... see how fear often is just our own imagination ruining our chances for an abundant life.
I learned lots of doable ways to manage my fear and anxiety - I've even been putting some of them into practice! And with good results, I must say. Prayer was a big thing that Fearless focused on. Just what I needed!
For all the encouragement and tips it gives, this book ultimately challenges us with this - Are you going to trust God with your day, your life, your salvation, your eternity ... this moment? I finished Fearless with an desire inside to be just that. Fearless! Have the courage to do all the things I've been scared to do - all the things God's calling me to. And I left with this incredible peace that, no matter what happens, God is ALWAYS. And heaven awaits.
