Catholic author and self-described “recovering worrier” Gary Zimak combines practical spirituality, daily scripture readings, and simple action steps to help you kick the worry habit as part of your Lenten renewal. He shows you how to let go of the anxiety-producing areas of life in order to find the lasting peace that comes from trusting God.
During the season of Lent, Catholics and other Christians frequently give up something they enjoy as a measure of penance or self-discipline—and often fall back into old habits at the first “Alleluia!” In Give Up Worry for Lent!, Zimak offers fellow worriers practical, scripture-centered advice on how to relinquish the need to control the uncontrollable—not just for Lent but for good—and how to find peace in Christ.
From Ash Wednesday to Easter Sunday, Zimak guides you to ponder a scripture passage and to apply it to your own life by following four simple steps:
- read
- reflect
- respond
- pray
As you continue to meditate on scripture and practice the simple action steps at the end of each reflection, you will find it easier to replace old worries with new messages of hope and to change your life forever.

One of the most important Lenten books you'll ever read. Gary Zimak adeptly confronts one of the most prevalent spiritual obstacles of our time—worry—and equips us to confront it for ourselves. He weaves together Scripture, personal anecdotes, Church wisdom, and prayer with finesse. Meaty, meaningful, and mighty!"

Lots of positive feedback!
We purchased 10 copies of this. Of the 9 that sold (in 2 weeks!) I had four separate people come back specifically to tell me how much it was helping them. The book is extremely well done, practical, and grounded in faith. Highly recommend!
