Official Review: From Fear to Faith in 30 Days
From Fear to Faith in 30 Days by Charmaine E. Betty-Singleton is a non-fiction book that guides the reader on how to be delivered from fear, in order to build his/her faith in God. The themes addressed in this book include faith, fear, sickness, death, and poverty. This book can be read as a devotional, as for 30 days, it provides encouraging advice from the Bible that can build up the reader’s faith. The tone in the book is simple and informal, thereby creating a personal atmosphere.
The author begins by defining fear and faith, explaining that they are opposite forces. She then begins explaining that we must only fear God, as he alone is almighty and omniscient. She explores the meaning of fearing God, indicating that fearing God means respecting God. The author argues that once a person begins fearing God, he/she receives the infinite love of God. The writer encourages the reader by explaining that in every difficult situation, God is with us when we believe in Him, as He promised to never leave us. It is also important to hear God’s word, as faith comes from hearing of the word of Christ.
There are numerous things I enjoyed in this devotional. Firstly, the author used simple language to convey her points, helping the reader understand her advice. Additionally, I liked the fact that the book was a devotional, as this allows readers to receive daily encouragement for 30 days. Furthermore, the writer added some personal stories in her book, which creates a personal mood in the text, thereby engaging the reader. What I liked most in the text was that the author added verses from the Bible throughout the book, which was encouraging and motivating.
What I disliked most about the devotional was that it included several errors, which undermined the author’s professionalism. The book should go through more professional editing in the future.
This book is best suited for Christian readers interested in building up their faith. Women may slightly prefer reading this book, as the author includes some stories of other women who overcame their trials by faith. The devotional will be enjoyed most by Christian readers, since the author writes from a Christian perspective, using verses from the Bible throughout the text.
In conclusion, I rate this book with 3 out of 4 stars. I did not rate it higher, as it contained numerous errors. A lower score would have been unfair, as the devotional was encouraging, motivating, and engaging.
