Fearless: How Jesus Changes Everything
Digital Logos Edition
Overview
A caring pastor and author meets with you daily in this collection of 261 inspiring devotions. Dr. George O. Wood examines the Book of Mark while providing a Scripture passage and prayer for each day. Wood is an engaging storyteller who shares an upbeat mini-story or vignette every day. For example, one day’s reading introduces the first grocery store owner to offer grocery carts for customers. It took time for people to accept this helpful new idea, since they had always carried everything themselves. Dr. Wood explains that our Savior does something similar for us. We tend to carry more burdens than necessary, so the Lord reaches out and says, “Let Me do it for you.”
- Provides daily reflections on the Gospel of Mark
- Includes a short prayer for each day
- Explores the theme of overcoming failure
“I am so thankful for the teaching of Dr. George O. Wood. In Fearless, Dr. Wood reminds us that the same Jesus who changed the world 2,000 years ago is still changing lives today. His power is our power. His hope is our hope. His peace is our peace. His love is our love. Dr. Wood—once again—leads us to higher places.”
—Roma Downey, producer, actress, president of LightWorkers Media
The healthy areas of our lives flow from a strong devotional life. Dr. George Wood shares tremendous insight from the gospel of Mark to help us in our walk with the Lord. Fearless will draw you closer to Jesus!
——John Van Pay, lead pastor, Gateway Fellowship Church, San Antonio, Texa
“More than anything, the gospel of Mark presents a Christ who is God’s servant, a Savior who came to serve and give His life as a ransom for many. Dr. Wood’s devotional provides a rich tapestry of biblical and deeply personal reflections that point us to this Christ with the challenge to embrace and be transformed by His grace so that we too may serve as He did. This is a rich resource for reflecting deeply on the gospel of Mark.
