Be Still: A Treatment Against Fear — Emmet Fox (1962)
Description
Offered here is Be Still: A Treatment Against Fear by Emmet Fox, published by Harper & Row, Publishers in 1962, as indicated on the copyright page.
This small but influential booklet presents Fox’s spiritual approach to overcoming fear through stillness, prayer, and inner reliance—core themes that resonated deeply with early recovery movements.
Emmet Fox was a major influence on early members of Alcoholics Anonymous. His New York secretary was the mother of one of the men who worked closely with A.A. co-founder Bill Wilson, and through this connection, early A.A. groups frequently attended Fox’s lectures. Fox’s writings—most notably The Sermon on the Mount—became widely read within A.A., and his pamphlets circulated among members seeking spiritual grounding.
