Anxiety: Anatomy and Cure (Gospel for Real Life)
Worry, doubt, and fear get the best of us all sometimes, and often there is no way to get rid of them. Anxiety, like any other negative emotion, is a twisted version of something positive from God; since we live in a fallen world, we may never have full victory over it.
However, Bob Kellemen proves that we can have victory in our anxiety—can learn how to use it when it strikes and avoid the temptation to sin. In this biblical study, he lays out a proper Christian view of anxiety, from creation to fall to redemption to consummation. Along the way, he helps us to apply the gospel to our daily lives and reclaim anxiety for what it should be—vigilance to motivate us to do God's work.
Robert. W Kellemen is executive director of the Biblical Counseling Coalition, executive director of the Center for Church Equipping, and professor of counseling and discipleship at Capital Bible Seminary in Lanham, Maryland.
Endorsements (${ productEndorsements.length })
“The Gospel isn’t just an ethereal idea. It’s not a philosophy and it’s not static. It moves and shapes and transforms the lives of those who by God’s grace alone put their faith in Jesus’ life, death and resurrection. I am grateful for ABC’s work of letting the Gospel bear it’s weight on these real life sorrows and pains.”
Matt Chandler
Lead Pastor, The Village Church
“So many trembling souls will thank God for the peace they will experience through reading this incredibly helpful booklet. I can’t believe how good this is. I learned a ton about myself, about my Bible, about my God, and about how to help others. I feel calmer already!”
Dr. David P. Murray
Professor of Old Testament and Practical Theology, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary
“With trademark readability and applicability, Dr. Kellemen has given the church a robust and relational biblical resource to use in aiding anxious, fearful, and worried people through victory in the midst of anxiety. I look forward to using this focused booklet in my counseling ministry!”
Jonathan Holmes
Counseling Pastor, Parkside Church
“Most of us already know that anxiety includes trust issues in our relationship with Christ, but that often doesn’t stop us from being anxious. Dr. Bob Kellemen gives the biblical anatomy of this basic truth with a concise but substantial consideration of how Christ stimulates trust from those he loves and what effect this trust has on the emotional life of a Christian.”
Dr. Jeremy Pierre
Assistant Professor of Biblical Counseling, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
“Dr. Bob Kellemen counseled my heart and renewed my mind in significant ways in this helpful, biblical look at the common struggle with anxiety. I will never view or war against my self-focused fear the same again. Bob teaches us how to deal honestly with our emotions while calling us to a lifestyle of daily surrendering them to the mind of Christ. I recommend this biblical resource for all who struggle with fear as well as those who want to help others find victory in the fight.”
Dr. Paul Tautges
Pastor, Immanuel Bible Church, author Counsel One Another
“Who doesn’t experience fear and anxiety? I know I do. This booklet has put in one place key biblical principles for addressing these common human issues biblically, realistically, practically, and compassionately. I especially appreciated that the counsel given dealt both with the details of key passages of Scripture, but also the big picture theologically of who our Lord is to us and who we are in relationship to him. Sprinkled throughout are questions and assignments to challenge your thinking and your soul. It was helpful for me both as a counselor and one who needs to apply these truths. I know it will help you too.”

Professor of Biblical Counseling, The Master’s College, NANC Certified Counselor
