{"product_id":"fear-not-9798992395297","title":"Fear Not","description":"\u003cp\u003eFear is not inevitable-it is a choice, and so is the alternative. Most readers have made peace with fear, worry, and insecurity as the fixed cost of living in an uncertain world: something to manage, medicate, or pray through, but never actually be rid of. John Kaites disagrees, and he brings an unusual set of credentials to the argument. He has built or co-owned eighteen companies, practiced law, served as a state representative and state senator, and studied at two seminaries-a career spent testing whether biblical principles hold up under the pressure of business, politics, and public life. His answer is Fear Not.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book walks readers through fourteen short, focused chapters built on four foundational biblical themes-Christ at the center, love for God and others, surrender and service, and freedom from fear-showing how every thought, decision, and relationship a person has flows from one of two sources: love or fear. Kaites doesn't stop at the theological case. He backs it with the science of neuroplasticity: the brain physically rewires itself around whatever thoughts it repeats, which means decades-old fear patterns are not permanent circuitry-they are habits the brain can unlearn.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat combination is what sets Fear Not apart on the shelf. Instead of leaving readers with inspiration and an open question of how, Kaites hands them a working plan: five daily practices-prayer, forgiveness, gratitude, intentionality, and service-each explained in terms of what it does to fear-based thinking and why it works, not just that it should. The result reads as comfortably in a men's ministry or entrepreneurship book club as it does on a nightstand, and its fourteen-chapter structure suits both a focused two-week read and an extended small group study.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Fitting Words\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798992395297\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.34lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.30d","brand":"John Kaites","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53514362126517,"sku":"9798992395297","price":12.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/9798992395297.jpg?v=1791903815","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/fear-not-9798992395297","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
