"How do we calm the anxieties and fears that we all experience in this uncertain and broken world? Melissa has very personally led us to the Word of God in a very comprehensive and thorough study of this topic. I have seen over many years, how she has applied these promises of God in her own life and found the comfort that only comes from the Holy Spirit using God’s sufficient Word.

Meet the author

Melissa Baker is passionate about sharing the truth and hope found in God’s Word. She has received personal healing, courage, and strength from its pages and experiences great joy in helping other find the same.

After teaching for forty years, directing ladies’ ministries, raising two daughters, and being a pastor’s wife, she unexpectedly became a widow. Her personal challenges drove her to seek answers, and she was not disappointed. The God who had held her hand and heart for many decades had not deserted her. He walked with her and strengthened her each step of her journey. As you go through this Bible study, her prayer is that you will know what you are seen, heard, and shepherded by your Wonderful Counselor. 

On a personal note, when Melissa isn’t spending time with someone as a biblical counselor or serving in her local church, you might find her playing piano, writing, baking, watching Youtube videos on how to repair her 1920s house, or enjoying friends and family. But, if you could sit down with Melissa over tea and scones and ask her what attribute of God means the most to her, she would look you in the eye and, with a conviction born of experience, say – “God’s faithfulness.”

Should you choose to remember anything from this study, let it be this – God is faithful.
