Transform your heart and mind to depend less on the approval of friends, family and strangers, and develop a healthy fear of the Lord. Spurring a tectonic shift in perspective on the self and relationships, this is the kind of book we can safely say everyone must read. Practical and application-oriented, this is a precious reminder of the tangible reality of our salvation.

Overly concerned about what people think of you?

All experiences of the fear of man share at least one common feature: people are big. They have grown to idolatrous proportions in our lives. They control us. Since there is no room in our hearts to worship both God and people, whenever people are big, God is not. Therefore the first task in escaping the snare of the fear of man is to know that God is awesome and glorious, not other people.

Welch uncovers the spiritual dimension of people-pleasing and points the way through a true knowledge of God, ourselves, and others.
