Paths of Fear is a unique anthology which explores that universal, and misunderstood emotion we call fear. This enjoyable read is part psychological, part informational, part motivational, and all inspirational. It is part persuasion, part poetry, part personal narrative, and all entertainment. Paths of fear explores a broad range of fears from that which manifests in screams of sheer terror, to that immobilizing, fear-ridden freeze. This dive into fear sheds light on that deep, dark discouragement that tells us “how we will fail.” It exposes the furtive belief rooted in us that “you aren’t good enough;” a destructive idea cultivated in toxic environments which erode us from the inside out. Thought-provoking narratives show the face of fear with insight, and examples of dealing with it with dignity and grace, or defiantly on one’s own terms, all inspiring in their own right. This part psychological survey, part positive self-help, part historical head-nod, and part spiritual essay spotlights the true antidote to fear - love, of one kind or another. Secularly accessible, but decidedly faith-based, Paths of Fear de-masks the monsters of circumstance, and surfaces the innermost demons buried within. It is a pleasing, poignant reveal of courage, faith, and modern scientific knowledge balanced with age-old wisdom which encourages us to rely on our best, healthy sense of true self, a heartfelt love for others and inspires paths of faith and hope to guide us through any trials of fear we must endure and overcome.
