Publisher's summary

What does the gospel say about your fears? What does it say about the irrational ones, like sinkholes in the Target parking lot? How does it speak to the rational ones, like PET scan predictions? And does the gospel have a word for the fears you feel you'll have for life, like the possibility of losing the one you love most?

Growing up in the green room of SNL, being born to a fire-eater and adopted by a SWAT cop, having internal organs explode, and adopting a deaf girl from China, Scarlet Hiltibidal has been given some strange life experiences - and lived in fear through most of them. But life changed for Scarlet when she learned to hold the gospel up to her fears and realized that though she can't fix herself or protect herself, Jesus walked into this broken, sad, scary place to rescue, love, and cast out her - and your - fear.

Seeing life in light of the cross will help you avoid fear, overcome fear when you can’t avoid it, and live beyond fear when you don’t overcome it. You don't have to be afraid of all the things.

Changed my life!

I’ve never read a book that has changed my prayer life so dramatically. Things I thought I’ve never pray for...and here I am. So thankful this book has directed my eyes to the King of Kings who cast out all fears.

Big Fan - 1000% Relatable

I loved this book. I laughed and cried. I want to get the hard-copy too so I can read it again with a highlighter - it is filled with verses and quotes I LOVED. I feel like Scarlet and I have so much in common from anxiety to striving for perfection and God’s love...and kind of being hot messes - and our husbands would be kindred spirits too with their passion for God (to where they sometimes cry when they pray) and patient kindness toward us as their wives and love for dragon stories. I heard Scarlet interviewed on a podcast (20,000 Reasons) and I knew I wanted to read her book ASAP. She tells funny stories from her life and relates them to the gospel and Scripture in a therapeutic way that feeds my soul. I recommend this book for moms, worn out Christians and any creative type people with hyper-active imaginations and big feelings. The most moving part of the book was the story of Joy that they adopted..:it just left me saying, “Wow.”

Real and authentic

I’ve listen to a lot of audiobooks but Scarlet brings a realness and authenticity in her words that are not easily forgotten. I also loved how everything pointed back to Scripture yet she didn’t spiritualize everything away. What a great book!

Scripture is powerful!

This book stood out to me from the minute I saw the title. As someone who has struggled with severe health anxiety and just about any other anxiety since being a little girl (I’m leaving a review using my husband’s account!), afraid of “all the things” hit the nail right on the head! There were parts of this book I could have penned myself almost word for word.

I’m grateful for Scarlett being brave and writing this, because through her, the Holy Spirit reminded me of the power of scripture. Sometimes you forget that you have such a weapon to battle the enemy with and you end up without the armor of God and you find yourself standing in the middle of an open field in a nightgown, hoping the enemy doesn’t see you as a threat and leaves you alone. The enemy wants us to forget the power of knowing God’s word because he knows it whips him. As a mother of four, ages 8 down to a newborn, I needed to be reminded of this…to be reminded to intentionally seek God and open His Word. To prepare myself for the daily battle, because without these things, I am not only not a threat to Satan, but I am lukewarm, which is terrifying.

God bless you, Scarlett, for such a reminder! May the Lord use this book to wake up everyone who reads or listens to the realization that for one who follows Christ, death is only the beginning and until that day, we can hold fast and see His hand in our lives.

Truth

Scarlett kept me laughing, while reminding me of where to put my focus. Such an encouragement, I can’t wait to share this with others.
