review: Editorial Reviews Review Whether you worry a little or a lot, this book has the remedy! We all know we should not worry, but we still do Tim Lane tackles it in a helpful, biblical, and practical way. Richard Blackaby, President of Blackaby Ministries International Tim writes like he preaches from Scripture. Surely, if we re going to find release from worry, we must find the One who is greater than us. Tim points us to him in this well-written, easily-studied book. Bob Inglis, former Member of Congress Living Without Worry tremendously helped me understand the roots, causes and effects of worry. It clearly addresses what the Bible says about overcoming worry and replacing it with peace and trust in God. I don t know of anyone not affected by worry; may God help you conquer those worries as you read this book. Clyde Christensen, Quarterback Coach, Indianapolis Colts, 2002 - present Tim Lane s latest book is a classic! Living Without Worry is theologically robust, laced with wisdom, filled with the love and grace of God, and intensely practical. After reading it, I went through it again, making notes to share with friends and remember myself. We all struggle with worry; Tim has provided a strategy to help us grow spiritually through the experience. Bob D. Dukes, President and Executive Director of the Worldwide Discipleship Association, author of Maturity Matters: The Priority and Process for Disciple Building in the Church This is a readable yet profound book, speaking biblically and personally to our struggles with worry. I recommend it to all who grapple with life in the midst of an uncertain world. Tremper Longman III, Robert H. Gundry Professor of Biblical Studies, Westmont College, Santa Barbara, California Unlike some Christian books that can actually exacerbate the problem, this brief, grace-saturated book will help give struggling Christians guidance on how to address their tendency to worry. Relying mostly on Scripture, but open to the insights of contemporary science, this is well-informed, Christ-centered pastoral wisdom at its best. Dr Eric L. Johnson, Professor of Pastoral Care, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Director of the Society for Christian Psychology Do you worry? Well, here is a book for you! Rather than give you superficial steps to stop anxiety, Tim reminds us of the big picture of God s message of hope in the middle of the what ifs of life. Dr Phillip G. Monroe, Professor of Counseling and Psychology, Biblical Theological Seminary, Pennsylvania In Living Without Worry, Tim Lane provides a unique combination of understanding and compassion for the many worries of life along with a God-focused, Christ-centered, eternal orientation. Tim offers every reader a robust diagnosis of worry and a heart-centered, biblical, and relevant prescription for replacing anxiety with peace. Dr Bob Kellemen, VP of Institutional Development, Crossroads Bible College, author of Anxiety: Anatomy and Cure I worry. All my attempts to stop worrying have failed pitifully in the past, leaving me even more vexed, but finally there s a book that can help break that cycle. Tim Lane gets to the heart of what worry is and why we all do it, and gently shows us a better, more biblical, way to live, saturated in the grace of the gospel. An accessible must-read for anyone who wants to begin the journey of worrying less. -- Helen Thorne, Training Manager at London City Mission, author of Purity is Possible Exploring issues from the past, in the future and in the present, Tim helps us to bring all our anxieties to the Lord Jesus. It is only when we humble ourselves before him that we are able to cast all our cares on him. Whether you are beset with worries or are seeking to befriend others who are, this is a great read. It probably will not stop you worrying, but it will give you a framework for understanding it and some strategies for dealing with it. Above all, it will bring you face to face with a crucified Savior and help you to fall in love more deeply with him. Then what will you have to worry about? Richard Underwood, Pastoral Ministries Director, The Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches We live in a worrying world - a world that is not the way God created it to be. That gives us plenty to be worried about. In this book Tim Lane walks alongside the worried and the anxious and shows us how anxiety can be replaced with the peace of God. With great pastoral concern and a sharp biblical understanding of the problem, he shows us how the scriptures speak to the worries of our hearts. I will be using this book myself and recommending it to many. Sally Orwin Lee, Member of the Executive Committee of Biblical Counseling UK With clarity and compassion, Tim Lane helps see the reality of worry in our lives and the real way out of worry in our lives. Because this book is good biblical pastoral theology, it is good biblical pastoral counseling. This timely book is to be warmly welcomed and widely read! Gavin McGrath, Associate Rector, St Nicholas Church, Sevenoaks This is a hugely helpful and much needed book. Worry and anxiety are a big issue for many of us and even as those who are trusting in Jesus we so easily fall prey to it's crippling and debilitating effects. With great warmth, wisdom and insight Tim shows us what is going on in our hearts when we worry and how the gospel truths and the hope we have in Christ really can bring the deep and lasting joy-filled peace that we all long for. Buy a copy for yourself and one for a friend! -- Andrea Trevenna, Associate for Women's Ministry, St Nicholas Church, Sevenoaks and author of The Heart of Singleness Living Without Worry tremendously helped me understand the roots, causes and effects of worry. It clearly addresses what the Bible says about overcoming worry and replacing it with peace and trust in God. I don t know of anyone not affected by worry; may God help you conquer those worries as you read this book. -- Clyde Christensen, Quarterback Coach, Indianapolis Colts, 2002 present
