You Can Love Jesus and Still Struggle with Anxiety

You Can Love Jesus and Still Struggle with Anxiety

You can love Jesus deeply… and still struggle with anxiety. In this episode, I’m opening up about my personal experience with anxiety—what it feels like when it comes in waves, how it can show up out of nowhere, and how I navigate it through both faith and practical support. We’re talking honestly about what Scripture says about anxiety, and how those verses are meant to comfort us—not shame us. I also dive into the conversation around therapy and medication, and why seeking help doesn’t mean you lack faith—it means you’re using the resources God has given you. If you’ve ever felt like your anxiety makes you a “bad Christian,” this episode is for you. You’re not alone, and God meets you right where you are.

Why do we suffer?

Life has really been life-ing lately. This is probably the most vulnerable I’ve ever been on the podcast, but I wanted to be real with each and every one of you. The truth is, the weight that comes with being a spiritual leader can be heavy—and we don’t always have it all together. In this episode, I open up about the challenges, the spiritual attacks, and what it looks like to keep showing up in faith even when it’s hard. If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, stretched, or just not okay—you’re not alone. 🤍

The Danger of Sitting in the Comfortable Seat

In this episode, we dive into John 6:60–69 and explore what happens when following Jesus starts to feel uncomfortable. Many of His disciples walked away when His teaching became hard to accept—but what does that reveal about faith, obedience, and spiritual growth today? This conversation is about the danger of staying in comfort when God is calling you deeper. We talk about why we often return to what feels familiar, even when it keeps us stuck, and what it looks like to choose obedience over ease. If you’ve ever struggled with trusting God in a difficult season, felt stretched in your faith, or found yourself wanting to go back to what’s comfortable, this episode will encourage you to stay. Sometimes the hardest place to stay is exactly where God is doing the deepest work.

Mark 1

New series!! In this first episode of the series, we’re walking through Mark chapter 1—the powerful beginning of Jesus’ ministry and the start of the good news. From John the Baptist preparing the way, to Jesus’ baptism, temptation in the wilderness, calling His first disciples, and performing miracles—we see a clear picture of who Jesus is: full of authority, compassion, and purpose. This chapter reminds us that before anything else following Jesus doesn’t require having everything figured out… and that even in the quiet or difficult seasons, God is still at work. If you’ve been wanting to grow in your faith, understand Scripture in a simple way, or just spend a few intentional minutes with God in your day—this is for you. Let’s walk through it together 🤍

Nothing Is Going My Way… But God Has a Way

Nothing is going my way… but maybe that’s because God has a better way. In seasons where doors close, plans shift, and nothing seems to make sense, it can feel discouraging. But what if the delay isn’t denial? What if the detour is protection, redirection, or preparation? God’s way is never rushed, never random, and never wasted. Even when I don’t understand it, I’m learning to trust that He sees what I can’t.
