The authors know that severe worry plagues many people, including Christians.
They know, because not only are they professionally involved in counselling others on the subject, but also because they too are both ‘worriers’ and therefore bring personal honest experience to the subject.
The book follows a practical format, going through each section in sufficient depth to be useful, but not complicated. Each chapter includes examples, helpful exercises and space for notes, and is intended to be used as a work in progress.
The impact of the solid biblical perspective throughout makes this book very different from being told to ‘snap-out of it’ or a mere self-help manual and could be used just as usefully in small groups as by an individual.
