Rather than discovering a life without hardship, Linda learned that believers can walk through profound difficulty with the love, presence, and guidance of God. Linda and TS discuss her book:Praying the Word: 90 Scripture-Powered Prayers to Calm an Anxious HeartLinda explains the principle behind the book: rather than approaching prayer only from the standpoint of our circumstances, believers can bring God's own Word back to Him in prayer.The book includes 90 topics and Scripture-based prayers designed to help readers engage biblical truth, pray according to God's Word, listen for His direction, and journal what they believe God is speaking to their hearts. Linda describes it as an approach that combines Scripture, prayer, listening, and personal reflection. In This EpisodeLinda Evans Shepherd's personal journey of faithTrusting God through suffering and unexpected tragedyWhy Christianity does not promise a life free from hardshipDeveloping a genuine relationship with GodThe importance of reading and praying ScriptureHow God's Word can shape our prayersUsing Scripture when confronting anxietyListening for God's direction while spending time in His WordThe devotional and journaling approach of Praying the WordWhy spiritual formation requires relationship with GodThe mission of AWSA — Advanced Writers and Speakers AssociationEncouraging Christian writers and speakers to develop their callingAWSA's retreats, conferences, workshops, fellowship, and awardsThe significance of the Golden Scroll AwardsWhy one book, page, message, or microphone can change someone's lifeUsing personal testimony to encourage people to trust GodThe multiplying impact of Christian publishing, broadcasting, and mediaLinda also discusses the ministry philosophy behind AWSA. The organization encourages Christian writers and speakers not merely to develop professionally, but to go deeper in their relationship with God and the Holy Spirit. At CPE Summer 2026, AWSA participants gathered for retreats, teaching, fellowship, workshops, and the Golden Scroll Awards. One of the central themes of the conversation is the extraordinary reach of the written and spoken word. As Linda explains, Christian authors and speakers may never know who will encounter a particular page, broadcast, testimony, or message—but that encounter may encourage someone, strengthen someone's faith, or even become a turning point in that person's life.

Psalm 23 (Jesus—the Good Shepherd—is the Answer for the Worried and Anxious Heart)1 The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.2 He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters,3 he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name's sake.4 Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.6 Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

Run To Win - Peace for your Anxious Heart by Anchor Church Palos
The sermon focused on Psalm 55 and the reality of anxiety, showing that even David, a man after God's own heart, struggled with overwhelming fear, distress, and emotional turmoil. The message explained that anxiety often arises when our hearts are pulled in many directions by the opinions, expectations, and pressures of life, causing us to lose sight of God's presence. While science helps us understand how the brain responds to stress through its built-in survival system, Scripture reminds us that lasting peace comes from living before the face of God and finding our identity in His love rather than in human approval. The pastor emphasized that God welcomes us to bring our worries to Him continually in prayer, just as David did, and that healing often involves both spiritual and practical steps such as prayer, meditating on Scripture, setting healthy boundaries, seeking wise counsel, exercising, and, when needed, professional therapy or medical care. The central truth of the sermon was that when our hearts are pulled in many directions, we experience anxiety, but when our hearts are centered on Christ, we find the peace, security, and acceptance that only He can provide.
Pastor Luke Wolfe Matthew 6:25-34 A sermon of Rocky Mountain Community Church, PCA in Billings, MT (7/12/2026)
Preaching from Matthew 6:25-34, an abundance of anxiety stems from a lack of security. How can we find security in the Father's love?

Preacher: Esther Kang Sermon Series: Life Reimagined Sermon Title: Peace for an Anxious Heart Scripture: Matthew 6:25-34 ESV
The Rev. Sarah Bonay speaks to how Jesus reveals that the Holy Spirit is not a wage for the worthy, but a gift for the helpless; He is the 'Spirit of Truth' who convinces our anxious hearts that we are no longer orphans defined by our failures, but children defined by His grace."

If anxiety has been loud lately—spinning your thoughts, stealing your peace, or making it hard to stay present—this conversation is for you.On today's episode of Radical Radiance, I'm joined by author and Bible teacher Becky Keife to talk about her comforting and Scripture-rich book, A Verse a Day for the Anxious Soul.Becky meets anxiety with compassion, reminding us that God is not overwhelmed by our worries—and that His Word offers steady, daily truth when our emotions feel anything but steady. In this conversation, we talk about how Scripture can anchor us when anxiety flares, why small doses of truth matter, and how God's presence meets us right in the middle of our fears.This episode isn't about fixing yourself or silencing anxiety once and for all. It's about learning to return—again and again—to the God who holds you fast.
Struggling with anxiety, overthinking, or “what if” spirals? This special bonus episode from Faith Over Fear explores how to find peace through Scripture when your thoughts feel overwhelming and hard to control. In this honest and deeply personal conversation, Jennifer Slattery and Carol McCracken unpack what’s really happening when anxiety takes over—and how God meets us in those moments. Through stories of health uncertainty, sleepless nights, and persistent fear, they reveal how biblical truth can interrupt anxious thought patterns and help us anchor our minds in God’s character. Rather than trying to suppress anxiety, this episode offers a better path: renewing your mind through Scripture and learning to recognize the difference between fear-driven thoughts and God’s truth. In This Episode, You’ll Learn: Why anxious thoughts often feel true—even when they’re not How “what if” thinking fuels anxiety and fear What it means to take every thought captive (2 Corinthians 10:5) Why suppressing anxiety can actually make it worse How to practice a simple “truth pause” when fear rises Practical ways to retrain your mind using Scripture To find more content from Faith Over Fear: Follow on your favorite podcasting app: Spotify: Apple For more Faith-centered podcasts: Lifeaudio.com Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

Reading: 1 John 4:13-5 and Chapter 5 Preached By: The Youth
Parenting dynamics are complicated, to say the very least. Every mother and father will leave wounds on their children, no matter how carefully (or carelessly) they parent. Today I'm sitting down with Melanie Shankle, who was generous enough to share about the wounds left by her mother as well as the healing she's found in raising a daughter of her own. Through her bestselling books and hilarious podcast, Melanie has shared her life with us for nearly two decades—from the frivolous and fun stuff to the hard and the heavy stuff. Her most recent book, Here Be Dragons, was one of the best books I've read in the last year. In true Melanie fashion, this conversation about aging well, relating to young adult kids, and breaking generational cycles is as heavy as it is light. I think you'll enjoy every minute.Show Notes:What we mentioned:Here Be Dragons: Treading the Deep Waters of Motherhood, Mean Girls, and Generational Trauma by Melanie Shankle - https://a.co/d/0giagu3Sparkly Green Earrings: Catching the Light at Every Turn by Melanie Shankle - https://a.co/d/0TMFnLlSongs for the Anxious Heart - https://open.spotify.com/album/6mA22vsD5MvgUPCEPKgjBg?si=vHtRb743RuGHJQKLvAkK0w Scriptures we referenced:James 1:4Isaiah 61:32 Corinthians 1:4Where to find Melanie Shankle:The Big Boo Cast - https://pod.link/262921699@melanieshankle on InstagramAbout Hope Heals:For more messages of hope, free resources, and opportunities to connect with me: https://hopeheals.com/Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hopeheals/Subscribe to The GoodHard Story Podcast!Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/good-hard-story-podcast/id1496882479Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/0OYz6G9Q2tNNVOX9YSdmFb?si=043bd6b10a664bebWant a little hope in your inbox?
