Many of you have asked about “further reading” on fear. Here are some of the books I have worked with while preparing for this series. If you’re going to read one book on the fear of the Lord then pick-up Mike Reeves’ new book from Crossway – it’s a treasure trove of insights. John Flavel’s work from the 1600s is a timeless classic. Chang is sensitive and practical in writing about Anxiety, and shares much from his own personal experience. Bader-Saye’s book is very thoughtful, sometimes provocative, and always interesting. Furedi writes as a social scientist – not a Christian – and provides a fascinating cultural account of fear. Enjoy!
