Beyond “Having More Faith”: What Christians Can’t Ignore About Anxiety

Anxiety is often associated with worry. But there is another side to anxiety that is not restricted to the level of our conscious thinking — and it isn’t solved by simply thinking it away or having “more faith”.

In this episode, Scott and Shawn take a look at anxiety through the lens of science and the Bible to understand its relationship to the human body — and, they consider how Jesus and other biblical characters dealt with the very real, physical aspects of anxiety.
