Globally, we’ve never been more anxious. Statistics for those seeking help for anxiety are rising rapidly and countless more individuals battle day after day feeling isolated and alone. Maybe you’re one of them.
If so, then this timely and helpful book on anxiety is for you. Writing both to those desperately seeking peace for themselves and for those seeking to help others, Chartered psychologist and experienced counsellor Catherine Haddow speaks truth to calm our fearful minds and hearts.
Catherine helps us to understand how anxiety operates in our bodies at a physical and spiritual level. She then unpacks how the treasure of the gospel can alter our experience of anxiety, pointing to how God’s promises penetrate our struggles.
There is another better way to contend with our anxieties. Ultimately, deep and lasting peace can be found, not in a process, but in the person of Jesus who meets us in our fear and brokenness.
Emotions: Mirrors of the Heart
Our emotions are powerful. We experience them so tangibly that they can often feel all-consuming. At one time or another, we will all have experienced what Catherine Haddow calls ‘tears, fears and sneers’ — those darker, harder emotions. We often don’t know what to do with them. Sometimes we feel helplessly controlled by them, unable to see anything other than the emotion. At other times, we try and hide them from others and from God.
In this book, you’ll see that our emotions are vitally important as they are ‘spiritual smoke alarms’ that can alert us to the state of our heart. Catherine presents her own ’tbH’ model which, when followed, helps us to understand our thoughts, emotions and behaviours in more detail, each providing vital information about the compelling desires, flowing from our hearts. She then helps us to apply biblical wisdom to where we’re struggling, inviting God to change and transform us from the heart of the emotion — the core of our being.
