Description

What If Your Greatest Fears Are Afraid of Jesus?

Fear is one of humanity’s oldest companions. Whether it’s chaos, darkness, disease, death, or the uncertainty of tomorrow, fear has a way of dominating our thoughts and shaping our lives. But what if the answer to fear is not greater control, more information, or stronger self-confidence? What if the answer is a clearer vision of Christ?

In The One Our Fears Dread, Dayton Hartman takes readers on a compelling journey through Scripture to discover the unrivaled power and authority of Jesus over every force that terrifies the human heart. Through vivid biblical teaching and practical application, Hartman shows that the One who calms storms, silences demons, heals disease, and conquers death is the same Savior who loves and sustains his people today.

This encouraging and deeply Christ-centered book will help readers:

  • Understand the spiritual roots of fear and anxiety. 
  • See Christ’s authority over chaos, darkness, disease, and death. 
  • Replace panic with confidence rooted in God’s character. 
  • Grow in faith through a deeper understanding of the Gospels. 
  • Find comfort in the presence and promises of Jesus. 

When fear feels overwhelming, behold the One whom every fear itself dreads.

Endorsements

If you lie awake rehearsing everything that could go wrong, this book will not hand you easy comfort. It will hand you Christ. Turns out that's so much better.

Lead Pastor New City Church, Mount Pleasant, South Carolina; author, 'Invisible Grief'

... while Jesus truly is “meek and mild,” when we’re in pain, suffering under injustice, or just plain terrified, we need more than that. And that’s what Dayton Hartman has helpfully given us ... a sovereign Jesus who walks on the waves, commands cancer, and raises the dead. I know your faith will be strengthened and inflamed as you read it!

Dayton reminds us that our hierarchy of fears must be reordered under the endless and unrivaled power of Christ. Everything we fear fears him! Enjoy these steel-toed boots of truth offered in this book. Put them on and walk by faith in Jesus—your conqueror, your champion, your friend.

Hartman lays out beautifully Jesus's dominance and authority over those things that cause our fears and shows the beauty and peace of fearing Jesus instead. 

Barnabas Piper

Christians don't make friends with fear; they make war on it. Through God's word and the Spirit, fear is something Christians seek to crush. This book helps us do just that.

Andrew Hopper

This is a short read, but if taken to heart can have a long lasting benefit for those struggling with excessive fears, phobias, and anxieties.  In a world of increasing fear and uncertainty, obsessed with worst case scenarios and conspiracy theories, people need to hear the Bible's most often repeated statement: "Do not be afraid" from the lips of the risen and reigning Jesus who has conquered the forces of chaos.
