Practical biblical based encouragement!
De Silva bases this encouraging book around 2 Timothy 1:7 - "For the Lord God hasn't given us a spirit of fear, but one of power, of love and of self-discipline." The book is broken into 5 sections:1. Fear - how it robs us of so much life2. Power3. Love4. Self Discipline5. How to Apply the learningsEach of the sections has 2-3 chapters (except the last one) and provides practical insights using many examples from De Silva's experience as a Sozo practitioner. This adds substance to the book and encouragement that fear doesn't have to cripple us as through Christ we have power to push it back to where it belongs.If you struggle regularly with fearful thoughts, I'd encourage you to give this book a read. I'm actually keen to read De Silva's other book on her Sozo practice as I've had that on my Kindle for a while now.

Practical, Helpful, Encouraging--An Easy Read
I have been pleasantly surprised and encouraged by this latest book I read. I was not familiar with the author but the book title convinced me to give it a try. After reading it, I would say that the title could be improved even further, cutting out the "Overcoming Fear" and just leaving what is currently the subtitle, "The Supernatural Strategy to Living in Freedom", because this small book contains much more than just overcoming fear. In Overcoming Fear Dawna de Silva leads the reader on a journey of discernment, hearing from God, inner healing, freedom, and, ultimately, overcoming fear. Along the way, she teaches and shares personal anecdotes from her own experience as a Solo counselor at Bethel Church in Redding, California. This book is full of practical questions to help you apply what you read to your everyday life, Scriptures that correspond with what Dawna writes, and quotations from other well-know and respected authors such as Joyce Meyer and Bill Johnson. Its length at just under 200 pages makes for a manageable read for those who would be intimidated by anything longer; I read it in about two weeks, taking a chapter a day most days. I loved the creative examples and stories Dawna used to share these truths; it made it seem like I was talking to a friend. This is an easy yet deep read that I highly recommend.Thank you to Chosen Books Publishers for providing me with a copy of this book to read and review.

Fear
Is one of the most important life strategies we should all be extremely interested in being able to handle at any point in our lives. Overcoming Fear by Dawna De Silva will give its readers the tips to force them out of the mind games of fear, which hold us back, and towards healthy living. It is completely doable and life-altering in all of the best ways possible. Struggling in the day-to-day should not be our way of life and De Silva is making it her goal to break us from this hold. I received a copy for this review from Chosen Books and all opinions are my own.

To grow!
In this book, Dawna brings us deep questions about areas of our lives that can be locked in fear. Full of examples and vocabulary, it helps you identify what are the lies that you are believing and the truth about them, in a beautiful journey with God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit.

This really works
So grateful for Dawna’s book Over Coming Fear. I was reading one story in the first few chapters and I felt God wrap around me and I prayed the same prayers and felt an absolute freedom in an area of my life I have been struggling with. No fear ever since.
