Overcoming Fear Simply a Matter of "Faith"

Houston, TX, July 19, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Author Elizabeth Kail Arnita says everyone has fears to face and her newest book "Be Brave Bettina" offers a lesson in how to overcome them. Her character, Bettina, is a caterpillar afraid to become a butterfly. The transformation is a long and seemingly impossible journey.

“Through the encouragement of her new friends, Bettina faces and overcomes the fear that once threatened to keep her from becoming who she was made to be,” Arnita said. “I have firsthand experience with facing a paralyzing fear while struggling to overcome shyness and insecurity,” she said. “But by facing the fear and recognizing that the ‘what ifs’ exist, I have been able to move forward.”

“Published through Halo Publishing International (http://www.halopublishing.com), 'Be Brave Bettina' is a story that will help readers recognize that everyone has some level of self doubt, but that each of us also has an inner strength,” said Publisher Lisa Umina.

Arnita said Bettina reflects her reliance on God in all circumstances. “He is always there to offer love and guidance on our journey.” “'Be Brave Bettina' gives an example of how God will never leave us or forsake us, especially when we are going through difficult times.”

Born and raised near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the author is the youngest of 12 children. She earned a bachelor’s degree in psychology at the University of Pittsburgh where she met her husband, Shadi.
