Fear is a Liar: How to Stop Anxious Thoughts and Experience God's Love (Christian Self Help Guides)

I liked this book. Very inspiring, but it had some political references in it. Specifically referencing President Trump. It used the phrase “fake news.” A LOT. Which was largely made famous by Trump. One chapter talked about how sheep shouldn’t lead other sheep, because they’ll fall off the path of love and end up singing, “I did it my way.” Which was played at Trump’s inaugural ball. To me this suggests that the author is saying Trump is trying to lead us in a religious way and will lead us off God’s path. So I gave two stars. I bought and read this book for religious purposes, not so I could read about the authors political stance. It sounds as though the author has some fears of his own he should be addressing with God, not his readers.

I absolutely loved reading this book. Unlike what another reviewer reported, I found that the author’s use of popular terms like “fake news” were done simply to describe fear in an easy-to-understand way using a term we hear a lot these days; not to take a shot at the President or Conservativism. The pertinent question to ask is, “Is this the truth?” Truth is the telltale factor and I found that to be the case in this discourse on fear. LOVE really is the answer! Before I was half way through the book, I began implementing the first couple of tools and was able to easily stave off a spiral of worry, fear and bad decision. This is exactly the kind of help I've needed to conquer fear, but didn't what to do beyond quoting scripture. Now I can. After all, the Bible says, "Perfect love casts out ALL fear," and "All things are possible with God." This book enlightened me as to how to partner with the Truth (The Way and the Life) and take one more step to look like Him.

5 stars of 5. The LOVE tool is excellent in its simplicity and I really appreciate the Biblically-based approach without the psycho-babble. The best way to drive nails is with a hammer--it doesn't require training, just practice. Using the LOVE method throughout the week has been effective in ways I didn't expect, and helped with fear I didn't realize I had. The Lord truly does set free.

In my past, I have been cheated on multiple times and just fell into a hole of depression and not feeling good enough. I had just been scared of letting my walls down, trusting God, and trusting anyone else. I had so much fear and could not break through it. This book was a great weapon and helped me break through the fear and not feeling good enough and I’m finally free. Buy the book if you are struggling with any kind of fear.

I highly recommend this book! It has been extremely revealing to me! From start to finish, this book has built up my confidence in Jesus and his sacrifice and showed me clearly how much love God has for me. I can also see the attacks of the enemy so much more clearly and am much better equipped to fight and win my own battles with fear, anxiety, and negative thinking and beliefs. Thanks for sharing this godly knowledge and wisdom with us!!

It helped remind me when I'm experiencing fear, I need to put Jesus in the equation. The enemy is real, and he puts all puts the bondage of fear in me. It's a good book I can read again to guide me when I'm going through a negative time.

This is a good book that tells one how to overcome fear. I like a book that tells us how to apply what has been taught.

This book is key to the biblical truths that teach us that we need not fear anything. God is for us, so who can be against us? The author has dealt powerfully with this subject of fear.. Christ has conquered everything for us and now we can walk in faith in what He has done for us on the cross and through His resurrection. I highly recommend this book and the absolute truth presented in it.

A biblical based book that will show you with the help of Jesus how to stamp out fear in your life. I related well to the fears the author speaks off ,having come from quite an unloving and abusive background, they start early in our lives but the author will show you how perfect love drives out all fear.

I found this really helpful. It’s definitely for believers, and not a self help book, you’ll be asked to put your trust in Jesus to defeat fear. But there is also a very practical and strategic plan that you can put in place, (again, you need to be a Christian or be willing to put your trust in Jesus for this to work) but it’s already started to practically help me in my life in very big ways. Thank you so much for writing this book. And thankyou God!

Understanding how fear affects me and what I can do to change my thoughts is amazing. Such a great book, recommend for anyone trying to figure out how to move forward in life.

I loved this book, it made me see things from a deeper, wider perspective. I recommend it.The author has put some really good points in this book, which is very encouraging.

The worst book I ever read, and I'm a Christian. They gave no real techniques on how to cope with fear just that we are sinners and to ask Jesus for help. I get it, we follow a certain religion, but this book provides no real techniques to help you conquer fear and is written in a way that is very creep and not how modern Christians should be thinking. I hope that this book is not distributed, because I could understand that after reading this non-Christians would never consider the religion due to the very perverse way of seeing humanity. Many christians have written incredible books on anxiety and fear which incorporates God, and I love those! The difference? They actually understand that fear and anxiety is a real problem that also requires real techniques other than telling everyone they are shameful. You know what's shameful? This book.
