Be Not Afraid

Jean Vanier is the founder of the l'Arche communities which provide shelter for men and women who have a mental handicap. In this book he writes with sympathy and understanding of the fear Christians have of letting go of personal habits and ingrained attitudes, fear of the unknown and of the extent of self-commitment. He also shows how fear, in all its forms, can undermine ordinary human relationships.
