Why read it?
1 author picked Running Scared as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I found this book when I was at the end of my rope with anxiety, and the book was uplifting, to say the least!

It also reminded me that God is the only place of true rest for restless minds. If you’re looking for a biblically rooted resource for common anxieties, this book was just that.
From Pierce's list on anxiety and faith.
