Klappentext Fear is hardwired into our brains and is a common biblical theme. To be afraid and to act on that fear is to remember that something in life is worth living for. Whitehead helps readers find the roots of hope in the soil of our fears so that we can form lives and communities of hope in the midst of fear. Zusammenfassung Our brains are hard-wired to experience the emotion of fear. Yet "do not be afraid" is a common refrain from the Bible! used for both comfort and chastening. We have often treated fear as something to be dismissed or suppressed.
