'This is a kind and empathetic theological exploration of what it is to be anxious. Claire shares her own experiences with an engaging vulnerability which avoids preaching or over-promising solutions. She offers a vision of managing anxiety through the example of biblical stories and through practising a gentle, compassionate approach to faith. A must-read for the anxious.' -- Jayne Manfredi
