Need to Overcome Fear, Anxiety, and Stress?

Last year, in the midst of the global pandemic—a time marked by a growing epidemic of fear, anxiety, and stress affecting millions of people around the world—Jon Gordon wrote a spiritual fable rooted in his faith.  Unfortunately, it’s a year later, and our world can be characterized the same way.

Gordon explains the origins of his faith, “Sermons from Erwin McManus brought Jesus to life for me when I was 35 years old. Erwin helped me realize that you can’t win a spiritual battle with man-made strategies. You win it with a greater source of power, truth, and strength.”

In The Garden: A Spiritual Fable, Gordon identifies the 5 D’s that can sabotage us and offers practical strategies to overcome fear, anxiety, and stress.  Whether we are dealing with fear, stress, and anxiety ourselves, Gordon invites us to take a walk through The Garden and learn a spiritual paradigm and a proven plan to help us overcome and win the battle in our mind.  

Gordon “hope(s) this story fills you with more faith, love, and hope so you can live with more peace and joy. God bless you.”

The Resurrection of the Body, and the Life Everlasting. Amen.

Every religious tradition, every culture, every family, and every individual has some concept of hope. It’s what you’re hoping for and what you hope in that drives everything about how you’re living your life.

We know that no matter what we achieve—greater freedom, greater liberty, better health, greater medical advances, fewer problems—things don’t get any better.  We may improve our quality of life—maybe—but sin, brokenness, and death are still inescapable. We can’t repair the fracture in our lives or in the world around us.

“The resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting”—this phrase is the foundation of Christian hope, Christian courage, and the ordering of the Christian life.
