When You Are Worried: Finding Reasons for Peace

Description

Money, health, relationships. We have plenty of reasons to worry, right? In this minibook, David Powlison explains that, although circumstances bring difficult challenges, worry comes from our hearts. So to help our worried hearts, he highlights seven peace-giving promises Jesus makes to his people in the gospel. As we explore what Christ has already secured for us, we will see that we have much better reasons not to worry—no matter what our circumstances. Worriers, and all who struggle with anxiety, can turn from life’s uncertainties toward a gospel hope that is sure.
