Anxiety is at an all-time high, but there's a prescription for dealing with it. Now in paperback, Max Lucado invites readers into a study of Philippians 4:6-7 where the Apostle Paul admonishes the followers of Christ, "Do not be anxious about anything..."
When it comes to anxiety, depression, and stress-related illnesses, America is the frontrunner. Thankfully, there’s a practical prescription for dealing with these issues. *Anxious for Nothing*, the most recent book from New York Times bestselling author Max Lucado, provides a roadmap for battling and healing from anxiety.
Does the uncertainty and chaos of life keep you up at night? Is irrational worry your constant companion? Could you use some calm? If the answer is yes, you are not alone. According to research, anxiety-related issues rank as the number one mental health problem among women and second only to alcohol and drug abuse among men. Stress-related ailments cost the nation $300 billion every year in medical bills and lost productivity. The use of sedative drugs like Xanax and Valium has skyrocketed in recent years, affecting even students—where average anxiety levels now match those of psychiatric patients in the 1950s.
Max writes, "The news about our anxiety is enough to make us anxious.” He understands the overwhelming worries and fears of life, which is why he is dedicated to helping millions of readers regain control of their minds and lives.
*Anxious for Nothing* invites readers to delve into Philippians 4:6-7, the most highlighted passage in any book on Amazon:
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
In his characteristic tone, Max guides readers through this Scripture passage, explaining key concepts of celebration, asking for help, leaving our concerns, and meditating. He also offers a companion children’s book, *I’m Not A Scaredy Cat*, showing kids that godly bravery can conquer fears and worries.
Stop letting anxiety rule your day. Join Max on the journey to true freedom and experience more joy, clarity, physical renewal, and contentment through the power of the Holy Spirit. Anxiety is part of life, but it doesn't have to dominate your life.
