Product Description

"In God I trust; I will not be afraid. What can mortal man do to me?" So sings the Psalmist. But quote that to a crime victim or a junior high student and they'll tell you fear of "mortal men" can prove a formidable obstacle! Here Welch offers biblical insight and solutions for a pervasive weakness in today's church. 239 pages, softcover from P&R.

Editorial Reviews

▼▲

Need people less. Love people more. That’s the author’s challenge . . . He’s talking about a tendency to hold other people in awe, to be controlled and mastered by them, to depend on them for what God alone can give. . . . [Welch] proposes an antidote: the fear of God . . . the believer’s response to God’s power, majesty and not least his mercy. -- Dallas Morning News

Biblical and practical. The reader does not need a problem with peer pressure or codependency to profit from this book. Opens our eyes and directs us back to God and his Word to overcome the fear of man. -- The Baptist Bulletin

Much needed in our own day. User friendly as a resource for Sunday School or home Bible study. Here is a volume that church libraries and book tables ought to have. Its theme is contemporary. Its answer is thoroughly biblical. -- The Presbyterian Witness

Refreshingly biblical . . . brimming with helpful, readable, practical insight. -- John MacArthur, President, The Masters University and Seminary

Ed Welch is a good physician of the soul. This book is enlightening, convicting, and encouraging. I highly recommend it. -- Jerry Bridges
