Summary
Angie Smith's What Women Fear is a heartfelt and deeply personal exploration of the fears that hold women back from living in faith. Through a blend of biblical stories, personal experiences, and spiritual insight, Smith addresses common anxieties—fear of failure, rejection, and the unknown—and offers a path toward transformation through trust in God. With her signature warmth and vulnerability, she reassures readers that fear does not have to define their journey. Instead, through faith, they can embrace the uncertainties of life with courage and hope. This book is an uplifting and empowering read for those seeking to deepen their spiritual walk while confronting the fears that often whisper doubts into their hearts.

A woman's faith in God is challenged by the first question Satan asks Eve in the Bible: "Did God really say you can’t eat from any tree in the garden?" That seed of doubt and the story it begins to unfold breed a concept of fear still haunting each of us on some level every day-the idea that our actions could ruin something beautiful, and God might not have control of things.
In What Women Fear, acclaimed writer and speaker Angie Smith admits, "fear is a major part of my testimony" and talks openly about her treatment for anxiety as a child. Giving a voice to the problem, she says, "I truly believe every single one of us struggles with some type of fear, whether it's fear of flying or fear of being 'found out.' Maybe you don’t worry about dying, but you get sick thinking about the fact that you might fail."
Rather than suggesting that those who truly love the Lord would never fear, Angie blends her own experiences with those of men and women from throughout Scripture to help us start dealing more effectively with these true, human emotions. Whether it’s a constant "What if?," a nagging fear of abandonment or betrayal, fear of your own or someone else’s death, fear of trusting God's plan, or even the fear that God's existence is a lie, Angie will walk you through stories of others who have simultaneously loved God and struggled with fear. Join Angie and discover how to let Jesus redeem this struggle as only He can, that He will be glorified, and you will be transformed!
