FearFaithChocolateAre you ready to strip fear’s power over you and become the confident woman you were meant to be? Have you found that tolerating your personal fear monsters only makes them growl louder?

Okay, sister – take my hand and let’s boldly step up and yank the masks off those shadow-lurking, anxiety-churning, worry-generating beasts.

With her own brand of off-beat wit and wisdom, inspirational humorist Debora Coty addresses heart needs of women worn down by everyday fears – financial, health, relationships, loss, pain, the unknown, the what ifs …

With fresh spiritual insight, Debora shares hope, true life stories, scriptural lifelines, and a few LOL’s along with simple, practical tips for sidestepping fear with faith. And a fistful of chocolate!

DCoty-24Debora Coty is an occupational therapist, a piano teacher, and a freelance writer. She’s also involved in the children’s ministry at her church and is an avid tennis player. Debora began writing to fill the void when her last child left for college, and it has since become a passion. Debora has a real knack for getting across sound biblical concepts with a refreshing lightheartedness as attested in her monthly newspaper column entitled Grace Notes: God’s Grace for Everyday Living.

My Impressions:

Fear, Faith And A Fistful of Chocolate is a small book filled with big truths. Coty has taken the scary corners of our lives and exposed them with the light of God’s truth adding personal experiences, real life stories, and a bit of humor. Within its pages you will find everything from internal fears (guilt, loneliness), external fears (risk taking, obsessions), faceless fears (money and death) and the way to beat them through God’s provision and promises. Each of its chapters includes scripture to explore and questions to ponder. This book would be great as a small group study, individual study, or a great resource for girlfriends. So if you are looking for a God honoring, affirming way to conquer your fears, check out Fear, Faith, And A Fistful of Chocolate.
