How to Be Brave: Annie F. Downs
What if brave happens in the middle of fear? Annie F. Downs, bestselling author of 100 Days to Brave: Unlocking Your Most Courageous Self, had to learn the hard way how to be brave. She felt her challenges were too difficult, too scary, too much. Then she decided to stop allowing fear to hold her back. It wasn’t easy or simple. But it was good. In fact, she asks, if you’re not willing to step out, how could it affect your relationship with God? And what if you’re braver than you know and stronger than you thought possible?
