如何培养对上帝的健康恐惧，将我们从对他人的恐惧、对未来的恐惧，甚至对死亡本身的恐惧中解放出来。
有时，世界感觉自己正在失去理智。从政治到大流行，我们生活在一个越来越不确定的环境中，我们中的许多人已经开始担心我们的社会和我们自己的生活会迅速瓦解。
恢复我们的理智并不是另一本关于如何战胜日常恐惧、追求更好生活的自助书。这本书将向你展示一位值得我们敬畏的神的庄严和荣耀。这本书将揭示这两个圣经中的短语“敬畏上帝”和“不要害怕”是如何相互矛盾的，但实际上是一个连贯的信息。
威斯敏斯特神学院（Westminster神学院）神学和道歉学教授迈克尔·霍顿（Michael Horton）告诉我们，我们不能通过寻求完全没有恐惧来战胜我们的恐惧，而是通过生活在对上帝的恐惧中，驱除对其他一切的恐惧。霍顿将带你通过这个案件，因为你对上帝的恐惧
-在圣经和神学上发展敬畏上帝的意义，以及这种恐惧在实践中的表现。
-对不同类型的恐惧进行分类，从文化焦虑到痛苦和困苦，以及它们的来源。
-专注于如何用植根于福音的对基督的希望来面对我们在地上的恐惧。
-提醒我们上帝并不为我们而存在；我们为上帝而存在。
谦卑、发人深省、点燃希望，恢复我们的理智会及时传递一个信息，帮助你将注意力从以人为中心的自我保护转向对基督和他的救赎的执着。
与其执着于虚假的保证和立即满足的承诺，你可以获得持久的快乐，因为你知道那位为拯救我们而献身的人，他对我们说：“不要害怕。”
Recovering Our Sanity: How the Fear of God Conquers the Fears that Divide Us
How cultivating a healthy fear of God liberates us from our fear of others, our fear of the future, and even our fear of death itself.
At times the world feels like it’s losing its mind. From politics to the pandemic, we live with an ever-increasing uncertainty, and many of us have grown to fear the rapid disintegration of our society and our own lives.
Recovering Our Sanity is not another self-help book about how to beat your daily fears for a better life. It’s a book that will show you the gravity and glory of a God who’s worthy of our fear. It’s a book that will reveal how these two biblical phrases—Fear God and Do Not Be Afraid—are not contradictory but actually one coherent message.
Michael Horton—Professor of Theology and Apologetics at Westminster Seminary—shows us that we cannot fight our fears by seeking the absence of fear altogether, but by living with a fear of God that drives out the fear of everything else. Horton will walk you through the case for the fear of God by
-Developing what it means to fear God, biblically and theologically, and what this kind of fear looks like in practice.
-Categorizing different types of fears—from cultural anxiety to pain and hardship—and what they stem from.
-Focusing on how to confront our earthly fears with our hope in Christ, rooted in the gospel.
-Reminding us that God does not exist for us; we exist for God.
Humbling, thought-provoking, and hope-igniting, Recovering Our Sanity delivers a timely message that will help you shift your focus from a human-centered obsession with self-preservation to a fixation on Christ and his salvation.
Rather than clinging to false securities and promises of immediate gratification, you can gain the lasting joy of knowing the One who has given himself to save us and who says to us, “Do not be afraid.”
