When John’s frantic search for spiritual accomplishment delivered way more than he expected, things suddenly got extremely weird! A reality-shattering event propelled John, an ordinary twenty-two year old Londoner, into a terrifying world where the very fabric of reality itself could not be trusted. This sounds like fiction. It is not. Dear Anxiety is a first-hand account of John’s extraordinary journey of recovery from an existential crisis so profound that it left most therapists clueless about where to even begin. After many years of fruitless attempts to resolve the debilitating anxiety and depression which followed, John finally met a gifted therapist who was willing and able to go with him to the complex depths of healing necessary for recovery, and he shares that journey with us in sometimes unsettling detail. The book touches on matters both spiritual and clinical, but deliberately leaves any conclusions about the crisis undecided. Was it a clinical psychosis? Or was it, in fact, a spiritual and transformational process? John presents the details of his experience, offers his thoughts, and leaves it up to the reader to decide. Dear Anxiety is a deep and fascinating biography, but it is a “warts and all” account of a sustained period of severe struggle with poor mental health which may not be suitable for particularly fragile or anxious readers. The intention though was to write a story of hope for those who have lost theirs. In demonstrating how dark anxiety and depression can be, it was necessary to share the gory details. As a result, it cannot be called a “light” read, but many have found comfort in knowing that ultimately, recovery is possible from even the darkest of places. Now, twenty-five years on, John Crawford is happy and well. He went on to become a successful full-time professional therapist from 2003-2018. He now writes full time, and has published five self-help books, three of which have been Amazon UK bestsellers. Get Dear Anxiety today for an introduction to the work of a true “anxiety insider”.

Have you ever thought about the innkeeper who sent Mary and Joseph to the stable because there was no room in the inn? When he stood before God, do you think he wished he’d slept in the hay and given Mary his own bed? Imagine knowing for all eternity that you sent Jesus out to sleep with the cows and sheep! In I was a Stranger, Marilyn Parker looks at Matthew 25 where Jesus, in His own words, warns that whatever we do to one of the “least” of His brothers or sisters, we do to Him. She draws on her forty years as the wife of a pastor—who regularly brought unannounced strangers home for a meal and a place to sleep, hosted ministers and missionaries, and kept the door open to his congregation—for both sobering and side-splitting stories about her family’s experiences with Christian hospitality. Marilyn also addresses the heart of the Christian, the church, and the country towards immigrants and Muslims, people with different lifestyles and world views—the strangers among us, for whom Jesus so freely gave His life. I was a Stranger is full of practical advice on how to entertain people in your home. AND it includes Cooking for Company, a cookbook full of stranger-tested recipes Marilyn used to feed all of those wonderful people. Be sure to check out the best-in-the-world-brownie recipe (it really is the best!), cowboy cookies, and authentic chicken enchiladas! Enjoy!
