Don't Be Afraid of the Dark explores the interconnectedness of fear, oppression, and sin within contemporary society. This collection of daily scripture meditations skillfully guides readers toward a transformative understanding of fear as the foundational force behind our society's challenges.


Each meditation highlights the dance between fear and power, exposing anxiety's role in controlling marginalized groups, reinforcing unjust systems, and fueling division. By uncovering both the root causes and the manifestations of fear, readers can embark on a journey of self-reflection and societal examination.


In the context of relationships, money, politics, and race, the author unearths underlying fear-driven narratives that have shaped societal norms and structures and brings a redemptive perspective to humanity's propensity to harm each other. Readers are encouraged to confront their fears and biases, ultimately forging a path toward personal and collective liberation.


Don't Be Afraid of the Dark doesn't merely dissect the problem of fear—readers are provided with actionable insights and scriptural contemplations, inviting them to engage in courageous conversations, challenge societal norms, and take proactive steps toward a more compassionate and just world.
