I am very intrigued my Max Lucado’s book FearLess. Before I get into that, let me back up a lttle.

I serve on the Wellness committee where I work. One of our latest projects was starting a quarterly book club. Because of this, we had a rep from Thomas Nelson Publishing come in and show what they could offer. Which it turns out they could offer a lot of things.

Anyway, it was during this meeting where I could hear a little voice telling me that I needed to become more active on this committee. The voice was telling me I needed to offer to teach a class as another option to the book club. Don’t get me wrong, I think the book club is a good idea, I just think that some people find the term “book club” to be a bit nerdy.

So, back to the meeting… Without a doubt I knew that little voice was God telling me these things. How did I know this? Because anyone who knows me, knows that I am terrified of speaking in front of groups of people. All through out the meeting, in my mind, I kept saying no I can’t do it. Of course by now I am trying to work a deal with God. I starting thinking OK Lord, if you really want me to do this, you are going to have to prove it to me.¬† And here is where it all comes together.

The sales rep then proceeds to pull out Max Lucado’s book FearLess. In my mind I am thinking “Are you kidding me???”.

With that, I proceed to tell them my idea. Now as of right now, no class has been scheduled and if one is, I am not sure if it will be a study of this book. So who knows.

Now about the book. I would like to say I have started reading it, but I haven’t. It has been sitting on my night stand for the past several days. I do plan to read it and hopefully soon I will start it. Perhaps that is what this post is for, to keep me accountable and actually read it. Even though I have not cracked the book open yet, I think it is a subject worth studying. I think I may talk to my pastor about teaching it on Wednesday evenings as well. Like I said, I may never lead a study about this book or the topic of Fear, but I am determined to read the book.

Below is some information about the book including a 4 part video town hall that Max did about that book.
