Notes:
Living with fear and anxiety can be incredibly challenging and debilitating. Our fears and chronic anxious thoughts can cast a dark shadow over every aspect of life, constantly weighing us down and restricting our ability to experience joy and fulfillment. Living with chronic anxiety not only erodes our mental well-being but also takes a toll on our physical and relational health.
While many of us struggle with fear and anxiety today, these struggles are not new to our time. Since the fall of mankind, fear and anxiety have plagued us all. But should we just resign ourselves to having to live with them forever? The answer is no!
In this episode, Ross O’Hair and Beau Brezina define fear and anxiety, share their personal experiences with anxious thoughts, and talk about how God empowers us to experience freedom by depending on Him and his truth.
