As Allan Cole knows firsthand, both personally and pastorally,
Christians are not immune from anxiety, and many believers go to
their church leaders for support and solace. This helpful book
draws on narrative approaches to theology and counseling to suggest
how pastoral caregivers may effectively minister to anxious
persons. Be Not Anxious provides pastors and other caregivers with
a basic understanding of anxiety, including how to identify those
suffering from it and how to get at what is making them anxious.
Cole focuses both on cognitive-based methods and on common faith
practices -- church membership, frequent worship, prayer, Bible
reading, service, and confession -- showing how these may provide
relief from anxiety. By addressing the roles of both psychiatry and
ministry as co-liberators from anxiety, he leads the pastor and the
faith community in helping disquieted souls to find rest.
