Faith vs. Fear opens with a clear recognition that fear is universal and unavoidable — yet it doesn’t have to be the final word in a person’s story. Kornegay frames fear not merely as a psychological or emotional obstacle, but as a spiritual adversary that must be confronted with faith. Early chapters work to define fear (and its various manifestations: anxiety, paralysis, doubt) and contrast it with biblical faith, setting the stage for a faith-based toolkit rather than a purely self-help approach.

One of the strengths of the book is its practical bent. Kornegay doesn’t content himself with theory; he gives readers “tools and steps” to actively replace fear’s grip with belief. For example, he encourages spiritual disciplines like prayer, confession, meditating on God’s promises, and intentionally stepping into “risk zones” of faith. This makes the book feel less like a passive read and more like a companion for those walking through fear in real time.

Stylistically, the book is relatively concise (about 126 pages) and approachable, which is helpful for readers who may already feel overwhelmed by fear or anxiousness. Kornegay blends personal reflections, scriptural insights, and encouragement in a tone that leans pastoral and empathetic rather than confrontational. There are moments where the transitions between personal narrative and spiritual prescription could be smoother, but overall the flow supports the book’s goal: to help people move from fear to faith.

In sum, Faith vs. Fear: Dare to Believe! succeeds as a compact, faith-rooted guide for people who want to face fear with spiritual courage. It won’t replace deeper therapeutic work or counseling in more severe cases, but as a spiritual primer it offers hope, direction, and actionable steps. For individuals, small groups, or ministries wanting a resource focused on fear and faith, it’s a solid pick.
