I thought it was a good book! While I didn't agree with every single point made, as a whole, the book offered tips and verses to help calm anxiety. There were many verses Joyce Meyer incorporated, as well as the practice application.

Great faith based book for how to deal with anxiety. Joyce gives lots of scriptures based on how God helps us deal with anxiety. She writes in a way that feels as if she’s speaking to you. Great book for those eating with anxiety.

This is a timely book for me personally, and I believe for many people overall. I appreciate how Joyce encourages and motivates you - she doesn’t just hand you what you want to hear, but what you need to hear and know. I will be taking these rich nuggets and applying them to my situation and season of life that I’m in.

Mama Joyce. I used to feel like her books were very dry, and maybe her writing style still is. But it was just what I needed in this time. I have ever really dealt with anxiety, but recently I felt it started to creep it’s little voice into my head and heart. Quickly I jumped at reading this book and getting on top of it.

**Now with that said, in no way do I believe that anything is wrong with those who need medication to manage their anxiety. But I certainly believe that everything goes along side our faith and prayer life. We do our part and God does His. My situation is not at medication level, by any means, but I do not want to discount that. Nor do I believe that Joyce Meyer does in this book.

I really enjoy Joyce Meyer's devotionals and self help books. They are really refreshing and insightful. Based purely and wholly on God's teaching. It helps you to take the focus off of your anxiety and focus on what God would want to you feel and focus on his teachings. To look at your blessings in a positive light instead of the negative. It really does help and puts a different perspective on the issue of anxiety.

As always, Joyce Meyer hits it out of the park with this. As some one who struggles with anxiety, this book was a complete blessing.

This is my first Joyce Meyer book so I was not prepared that her answer to anxiety would be entirely faith based. That does not mean what she provides isn’t helpful, and she also provides great examples. However this was not what I was personally looking for and I understand what to expect from the author going forward. This will be an appreciated read for people of faith looking to strengthen their relationship with God when suffering anxiety.

Joyce Meyer, in her newest book, The Answer to Anxiety addresses the feeling most commonly felt in so many people. Anxiety can be so crippling and struggling to overcome it has been difficult. Joyce tackles this topic by focusing on Philippians 4:6-7. Philippians 4:6-7 states that praying with thanksgiving to God will result in peace instead of anxious feelings.

Joyce writes about gratitude, peace, how worry and anxiety affect us, and how prayer can be comfort in times of worry. Joyce adds Scripture that support and give encouragement when facing times of anxiety.


One piece of Scripture that resonated to me was Exodus 14:4. Exodus 14:4 states that the Lord fights for us and resting on this knowledge will give us peace. This was a great reminder to me that God sees our hurts and our struggles and we are not alone in facing them.


This book is helpful and encouraging. The Scriptures illustrated in this book and the message Joyce writes reflects the message that God doesn't want us to worry and He wants the very best for us.


Happy Reading!

One of the things I appreciate about Joyce is that she is willing to share personal examples from her own life. She doesn’t preach as much as she teaches from experience. I found this book to be insightful and encouraging. I like the practical things that we can actually do to better our lives and our relationships with God and others. I highly recommend this book - even for those who aren’t struggling with anxiety — they too would benefit from the teaching.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for a copy of this book. The opinions are solely my own and a positive review was not required.

Another helpful book by teacher Joyce Meyer. Her ministry is well known and may be why you are interested in this book. Whether you know of her teachings or not, you will find yourself enjoying and learning from this book. Everyone goes through anxious moments. In this short book you find guidelines to follow that will help with the anxiety you are currently dealing with. From prayer to thanksgiving, the steps are all written in an easy-to-understand language, with thoughtful examples. I liked how open she was about her own struggles. I thought the book was not only helpful but also something you could read over and over as you deal with different circumstances that begin to cause you anxiety.

Amazing scriptural and Godly insight on how to deal with life's problems. Practical wisdom and truth that forces you to evaluate yourself and you respond to situations. Extremely helpful book.

Author Joyce Meyer has a way of making God’s word relevant and teaches us how to apply it to our daily lives. I have read other books by her, but this book had a different tone and feeling. Perhaps because it was written during a personal trial (no spoilers from me).

Joyce presents Biblical strategies on how to address anxiety in our lives and explains the strategy in five simple steps. As a person of the Christian faith, the strategy was not new but written in a manner that makes God’s desire for us to live a peaceful life eye-opening.

I appreciated Joyce’s gentle writing style on this topic, a change from the bold delivery some have seen on television broadcasts. I also appreciated Joyce’s emphasis that Jesus, therapy (and medication) all work together.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who desires simple knowledge on dealing with and overcoming anxiety. The recommendations are easy to implement, and I experienced peace while reading the chapters.

I received an advanced copy of the book for an honest review.

We know we will have problems because we live in a sinful world. Meyer says if we learn to deal with the daily troubles quickly, we will not develop anxiety disorders. She learned the importance of this when, near the end of 2017, she became very ill because of stress. That experience was a turning point in her life, she says.

Meyer bases her book on Philippians 4:6-7. She gives four commands from that passage:
We are not to be anxious
We are to pray
We are to be thankful
We are to enjoy peace.

She gives good strategy for each of those points with practical suggestions for dealing with worry and anxiety. Her suggestions are based on the Word. And in case we think she has conquered all this, she gives examples from her own life of how she has had to work through these commands too.

Here are some of the insights I really appreciate. One is that anxiety is rooted in fear. That's one reason why trusting God and believing He loves us is so important. Another insight is our frustration with not knowing as much as God. And we try to solve problems we were never meant to solve. We are rather to give them over to God and then trust Him to work in His time. And then she reminds us that we often complain about a situation or a person without having prayed about it first. Ouch. And, Paul did not pray that peoples' problems would go away. Rather, he prayed they would bear it with a good attitude. And, Meyer says gratitude is a form of spiritual warfare. How about wanting peace so deeply that you ask God to change you rather than your circumstances?

That is just some of the good teaching in this book. Meyer gives good strategy with practical ideas to deal with worry and anxiety. The book is very readable and I recommend it for anyone who wants to successfully conquer worry and anxiety.

Food for thought: “We should always be growing spiritually, being gradually transformed into the image of Jesus Christ.” (1277/1624)

I received a complimentary egalley of this book from the publisher. My comments are an independent and honest review.

Thanks to FaithWords and NetGalley for the ARC and the opportunity to read and review this title.

This was really an eye-opener for me. Joyce Meyer does it again, great book to help with anxiety. She took complex situations and broke them down in a way that anyone can understand.

Love Joyce Meyer. She is such a great speaker and writer. Reading this book helps relax my anxiety so much. She writes as if she is actually speaking to you in person. Highly recommend this book.

Joyce Meyer has written a very insightful, and helpful book on anxiety. I am always drawn to her writing. This was another great book by her.


Thank you NetGalley for the ebook in exchange for an honest review.

This was really an eye-opener for me. I have read and enjoyed most of Joyce's books and have gleaned a lot of wisdom from all of them. But her newest book The Answer to Anxiety felt as if it was written specifically for me. It answered so many questions and doubts I've had all my life about my constant state of dissatisfaction and sadness over my lack of intensity between Christ and myself and the reasons for it. I was the one who thouht herself unworthy to be closer to God. I recommend this book to anyone who has doubts about their relationship with the Lord.

I've read a lot of Joyce Meyer's books over the years, and one of the reasons I am drawn to her's is because she freely writes about her own personal experiences, giving her books an intimacy that is lacking in others.

Her newest book, The Answer to Anxiety, is another book carefully written by Joyce partially because she was searching for answers to help in her own life. I especially appreciated her thoughts on being grateful no matter what the circumstances are in our lives. I have to admit—that's a hard thing for me to do!!! Her explanation goes a long way towards bringing me to a place where I am more comfortable with that idea.

This is another 5 star book in my opinion.

Joyce Meyer does it again: she encapsulates common sense and powerful teaching in The Answer to Anxiety. Anxiety is something I've struggled with. Medication can treat but not cure. Joyce Meyer's personal experiences ground her spiritual teachings. She give sound biblical teachings that will help anyone dealing with or trying to prevent anxiety. The book is easy to read and holds many insights I highlighted in order to refer to repeatedly.
Anxiety is epidemic in our society. Joyce Meyer's The Answer to Anxiety is valuable in both facing and treating anxiety in sound biblical teaching.
I received a copy in return for my honest review.

Thank you for providing me the opportunity to review “The Answer to Anxiety“ prior to its publication. I am appreciative and leave my sincerity review voluntarily.
