Fear is not a sin, Featuring Ed Welch

In this episode we talk with Ed Welch , counselor and faculty member at the Christian Counseling and Educational Foundation. He introduces his new book, Fear is Not a Sin: It Is a Call to Action . This book has a provocative title, and we hear from Ed about why he chose this title and how he wants us to think about fear in relation to our engagement with God and with the Church. He shares wisdom about how God approaches us when we are afraid, and he encourages us in how we can come to God with the fears we experience. Become a friend of the podcast by subscribing!
