Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take

Gracefully Navigating Anxiety

Heather Frank · 2021
72/100
👍 Worth It

Heather Frank writes from inside the experience and that authenticity carries real weight — the blend of CBT-adjacent techniques with evangelical theology is rare and genuinely useful for the audience it's written for. The What-if to Even-if reframe is memorable and scripturally grounded. Readers outside the evangelical tradition won't find much purchase here, but for Christian women dealing with anxiety this fills a gap that secular self-help cannot.
