Learning to trust

LIVING WITHOUT FEAR:
Using the Psalms to End Your Worry
and Anxiety
By Kirsten Birkett
Self-published through Amazon.
168 pages. £12.67
ISBN 978 1 739 690 700

It would be a self-deceived, and ultimately foolish, follower of Jesus who denied ever being afraid, seeking to claim an advanced spirituality to this end.

Natural human fears of every type beset us routinely throughout life in a broken world. I, your reviewer, am living with a very real, natural fear right now; that a severe neuropathic pain syndrome that has beset me all year will never end. So I badly need this book by Kirsten Birkett, and have valued it hugely.
