The Lord is Near

Pray Your Fears

Ben Foust works through Philippians 4:6-7 and the practical question anxious people actually ask: what am I supposed to do with my fears? Paul's answer isn't to ignore them or obsess over them — it's to pray them, using a simple framework of telling God, giving thanks, and asking him to act. Speaker: Ben Foust

The Lord is Near

Ben Foust continues in Philippians 4, making the case that most of our go-to strategies for managing anxiety backfire because they're all attempts to do the job of a sovereign God. Accepting our own limitations — and the reality that God is both in control and personally invested — is what actually begins to loosen anxiety's grip. Speaker: Ben Foust

Rejoice in the Lord Always

Ben Foust opens a four-part series on anxiety from Philippians 4, starting with what anxiety actually is — and why Paul's command to "rejoice" isn't a platitude. The foundation for addressing worry, he argues, isn't positive thinking but a clear-eyed understanding of what's already true of you in Christ. Speaker: Ben Foust

When Everything Against You Is Actually for You

Ryan Lowery concludes the Joseph series as Joseph goes from prisoner to Egypt's second-in-command in a single morning, then faces his brothers who unknowingly bow before him—fulfilling his dream from 20 years earlier. He contrasts Jacob's false perception that "everything is against me" with the reality that Joseph controls Egypt's food supply and will save them all. Speaker: Ryan Lowery

When God's Plan Becomes Clear

Ryan Lowery traces Joseph's dramatic rise from condemned prisoner to Egypt's second-in-command after interpreting Pharaoh's dream about famine—a reversal that happened in a single morning after 13 years of suffering. He contrasts Joseph's hidden blessing with Jacob's false perception that "everything is against me" as he mourns Joseph's supposed death while starving in Canaan, unaware that Joseph controls Egypt's food supply and will save them all.
