Blending psychological expertise with pastoral care,
Edward Welch addresses the unique challenges students encounter, from academic stress to social pressures.
We all know the feeling. That nervous, jittery, tense feeling that tells you that something bad is just ahead. Anxiety can be overwhelming. But the Bible has plenty to say to people who are anxious. This book will help us to take our eyes off our circumstances and fix them on God.
Specifically tailored to students, this guide is packed with actionable advice, reflective exercises, and spiritual encouragement, making it a valuable resource for those seeking to understand and manage their anxiety effectively. With great compassion,
Welch equips students with the tools they need to track their anxiety,
understand its triggers, and find lasting peace amidst the chaos of student life.

This is a book about you, about something you face every day. Reading this will help you identify and deal with the core of your anxieties,
and it gives answers that are not bandaids or simplistic. This book is perfect for teens trying to understand where their anxiety comes from, but be careful parents, it might have more to say to you than you realize!
