CANDACE COFER

We've seen how the power of Scripture and worship can help us fear less but what about thanksgiving? Is it really that powerful?

The darkness of fear surrounded me. Earlier that day, my husband and I got the news that his cancer had returned.

I was tired and worn out. I couldn’t remember the last time my heart, mind and body had all been at rest. I had fallen into a trap of fear.

Why does God keep telling us not to be afraid? Why is this repeated over 300 times in the Bible?

We're told, "Be fearless!" But, is that really possible? If I struggle with fear, does it mean I'm not "Christian enough"?
