Graduation is supposed to feel exciting, but for many young adults, it feels overwhelming. You crossed the stage, earned the degree, and completed a major chapter of life. Now comes the question nobody seems to answer clearly: What do I do next? In this episode of The Gen Z Series, Lina and Micah are joined by a special guest for an honest conversation about navigating life after graduation. Together, they discuss the uncertainty of the "in-between" season, how to handle the opinions and expectations of others, what to do when fear about the future takes over, and how to seek God's direction when you don't know what's next. If you've recently graduated, or you're wondering what God wants you to do with your life, this episode will encourage you to take your next step with faith, not fear.   Helpful resources:

This week, Ryan and Brian try again to understand the ides, to pronounce things in Greek, and to offer more crossword content than food content -- and likely fail at all three. Also, between recording and releasing, it was confirmed that Brian was not, in fact, going to prepare steaks.

Tim Shriver has spent a lifetime learning to see the people the rest of us are socialized to look past. The chairman of Special Olympics, co-creator of the Dignity Index, and son of Eunice Kennedy Shriver and Sargent Shriver, he argues that what's tearing America apart isn't how much we differ, but how we treat one another when we do. "We're not being torn apart by difference. We're being torn apart by the way we treat each other when we differ." In this episode with Mark Labberton, Shriver reflects on the teachers who shaped him—students and athletes who taught him a different way of seeing. They discuss the Dignity Index, contempt, toxic empathy that gives way to excusing harm, the role of "self-purification" in Martin Luther King Jr.'s non-violent campaigns, his Catholic faith, and the embracing the Eucharist as self-giving love. Episode Highlights "We're not being torn apart by difference. We're being torn apart by the way we treat each other when we differ." "Empathy is knowing and understanding. Dignity is valuing and seeing." "You will have a superpower if you fight for your principles with all the passion you've got and add one principle: treat the other human being with dignity at the same time." "They're not crying because they're sad for the athlete. They're crying because something is coming out of them." "Concretely, you may hold, you may touch, you may drink of the face of God." About Tim Shriver Timothy Shriver has chaired Special Olympics International since 1996, growing the movement to over four million athletes worldwide. The third child of Eunice Kennedy Shriver and Sargent Shriver, he taught for years in New Haven public schools and helped launch the field of social and emotional learning, co-founding and chairing CASEL. In 2018 he founded UNITE to bridge America's political divides and co-created the Dignity Index, an eight-point scale from contempt to respect. He is the author of the New York Times bestselling memoir Fully Alive: Discovering What Matters Most, and holds degrees from Yale and Catholic University and a doctorate from the University of Connecticut.

"What am I supposed to do with my life?" It's one of the biggest questions Gen Z is asking, and one of the biggest sources of anxiety. Many young adults are terrified of missing God's will, making the wrong decision, choosing the wrong career, or taking a path that will somehow derail their future. But what if we've misunderstood calling altogether? In this episode, Lina and Micah dive into one of the most important conversations from Lina's new book All Your Life. Together they explore what the Bible actually teaches about calling, purpose, and God's guidance. You'll discover why your primary calling is not a career, why God is more concerned about who you're becoming than what you're doing, and why you can trust Him with your future. If you've ever worried about missing God's plan for your life, this episode will encourage you with one simple truth: God is better at leading you than you are at missing Him. Stop waiting for a blueprint and start following the One who knows the way. Listen now.   Helpful resources:

"In collaboration with this beautiful earth and serendipity and the flow of things, there we are powerful."  *** Mellissa Seaman on what happens when your best leadership looks like "doing nothing" and why that's not what it actually is. Mellissa shares a private retreat moment where she was holding a profound energetic clearing and kept thinking, "I'm doing nothing." Helpful little lawyer brain, right? But the guidance was clear: Hold the door open. This conversation is for intuitive leaders who know what it feels like to prepare deeply, bring the framework, show up, and then realize something deeper than your plan is asking to move through the room. When that happens, do you grip harder, start role playing expert, or stay clear enough to let the real work arrive? Mellissa explores why effort can become interference, why preparation still matters, how powerful clients and big money can mess with your channel, and why grounded intuitive leadership requires both skill and active receptivity. She calls this Channeling Your Genius (it's why she named her business that). Your best stuff comes through when you've done the preparation, the inner work, the mentorship — and then you get out of the way.   In this episode: How "doing nothing" can actually be your deepest leadership Why effort turns into interference when the stakes get high What Channeling Your Genius looks like in client work, healing, strategy, and leadership How to recognize when the situation needs something deeper than your plan Why preparation, your own inner work, and body awareness matter when you hold a powerful field How money, status, and powerful clients can mess with your channel if you contract or start performing Why the best leadership helps people feel clearer, calmer, and more rooted in their own knowing If you're ready to open your channel and let your best stuff flow through you more effortlessly, you'll like this one.    Resources Mentioned: Private retreats with Mellissa: https://channelyourgenius.com/2026-retreats   More Resources:  Take the Soul Gift Quiz: https://www.soulgiftquiz.com   Join the FREE Explore Your Gifts Circle: https://academy.channelyourgenius.com/explore     Connect with Mellissa: Website: https://www.channelyourgenius.com   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/MellissaSea    YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@channelyourgenius    Substack: mellissaseaman.substack.com   Keywords: intuitive business leadership, grounded intuitive leadership, Channeling Your Genius, intuitive leadership, co-creation, spiritual leadership, energy healing, client work, spiritual entrepreneur, leadership development

Are you teaching Pilates — or just choreography you borrowed from someone who borrowed it from someone else? In this solo episode of The Pilates Lounge Podcast, host Katie Crane gets honest about one of the most important conversations happening in the Pilates industry right now: the erosion of lineage. Katie shares why learning from the source matters more than ever, what it truly means to earn the title of "master," and why the shortcut is always the long way around. In This Episode, We Discuss Why Pilates has a lineage — not a trend — and what that means for your teaching The problem with teacher training programs that aren't connected to Joseph and Clara Pilates What the word "master" actually means, and why most people are using it too soon The guild model of mastery — apprentice, journeyman, masterpiece — and how it applies to Pilates education Why foundation work like footwork is never something you graduate from The role of repetition and deliberate practice in becoming a truly excellent educator How to choose a mentor, teacher trainer, or course with your eyes open Why filling your own creative cup is essential to sustaining a long career in Pilates Key Takeaways ✨ Get as close to the source as possible Jay Grimes, who trained directly with Joseph and Clara Pilates, said it best: Pilates has a lineage, not a trend. If you're learning this craft, trace the thread back to the source and choose your lineage deliberately — not by default. ✨ Nice is not the same as qualified Just because an educator was kind, encouraging, and gave you a certificate doesn't mean they were the best person to teach you Pilates. Kind is not the same as competent. Helpful is not the same as correct. ✨ The foundation is not something you graduate from The masters Katie admires most are still doing footwork, still refining the Hundred, still finding new depth in the most basic work. The foundation is the thing you return to for the rest of your career — not the thing you rush through to get to the advanced repertoire. ✨ Mastery takes time — and that's the point Whether it's Don Bradman hitting a cricket ball against a corrugated iron water tank or Leonardo da Vinci grinding pigments as a teenager, the path to mastery has always been the same: repetition, patience, humility, and years of deliberate practice. The shortcut is always the long way around. About Katie Crane Katie Crane is the host of The Pilates Lounge Podcast and a Pilates educator based in Darwin, Australia. With over 21 years of teaching experience and four Pilates diplomas totalling more than 2,800 hours of study, Katie is passionate about protecting the lineage of Pilates and developing the next generation of skilled, grounded Pilates professionals. She runs her own studio, teacher training program, and The Pilates Professional — an online platform for Pilates educators. Resources Mentioned Jay Grimes — first-generation student of Joseph and Clara Pilates; quoted on Pilates lineage Don Bradman — Australian cricket legend; referenced as an example of mastery through repetition Malcolm Gladwell — author who popularised the 10,000-hour rule (drawing on Anders Ericsson's research) Anders Ericsson — researcher into expert performance and deliberate practice Romana Kryzanowska — first-generation Pilates elder; known for instructing students to "do it again" Polestar Pilates — training organisation referenced by Katie (founder: Brent Anderson) Pilates Association of Australia — industry body for certified Pilates professionals in Australia PMA (Pilates Method Alliance) — industry body in the United States The Pilates Professional — Katie's online platform: www.thepilatesprofessional.com.au Pilates Pro Academy — Katie's teacher training program; mentioned at the end of the episode Listen & Subscribe Listen to The Pilates Lounge Podcast on your favourite podcast platform.

Kaleb and I had a really honest conversation about something that's been on our hearts lately: Is Christian social media actually helping people grow in their faith, or could it sometimes be hurting them? We talked about the incredible ways God has used social media to reach people, share the Gospel, and build community, but we also wrestled with the challenges that come with Christian influencing, performative faith, monetizing ministry, comparison, and call-out culture. This conversation was especially personal because we've both experienced different sides of the Christian creator world. We discussed the tension between sharing your faith publicly and keeping your relationship with God authentic and personal. Kaleb opened up about why he sometimes struggles with faith-based content online, while I shared how God has used social media in my own journey and in the lives of so many others. One of our biggest takeaways? Christian influencers can inspire us, but they should never replace our personal relationship with Jesus, our local church, or real-life Christian community. Social media can be an amazing tool, but it should point us back to God—not become the source of our faith.

For many of us, over-functioning doesn't look like a problem. It looks like competence. It looks like generosity. It looks like being the reliable one. In this candid conversation, Kristin and Julie Raines explore the hidden costs of becoming the emotional engine behind relationships, families, friendships, and entire social systems. Together they unpack how over-functioning becomes automatic, why many women were conditioned to equate worth with self-erasure, what happens when burnout removes the ability to keep carrying everyone else, and how nervous system healing changes the way we show up in relationships. They also discuss neurodivergence, hypervigilance, friendship, reciprocity, self-regulation, boundaries, diagnosis, masking, and the surprising challenge of learning how to support yourself instead of constantly supporting everyone around you. If you've ever been the fixer, the helper, the rescuer, the planner, the emotional regulator, or the person everyone depends on, this conversation is for you.Give yourself a gift and subsribe to Julie's writing at Substack.

The Detroit Lions Podcast hits minicamp week with Jeff Risdon on site Tuesday and Wednesday. Expect post-practice recaps later each day and a possible live show Wednesday if time and bandwidth cooperate. The focus is clear: identify real roles before the summer break, then reset for training camp in late July. O-line puzzle and the return game Juice Scruggs headlines the interior line watch. Left guard sits as the only unsettled starting spot, and Christian Mahogany is the early favorite. Scruggs will still be in the mix. He has NFL snaps, power in short spaces, and the mobility to reach. Hand placement has been inconsistent. The question this week is how he looks under Hank Fraley and where he ranks in the rotation. Ben Bartch remains a name to track as he works back from a Lisfranc injury. Greg Dortch steps into the wide receiver and special teams conversation. He profiles as WR4 and the first man up to handle punt and kick returns. He creates yards after the catch. He turns a quick swing into a chain-mover. Jeff wants to see his vision and acceleration up close, plus how he plays through contact and extends to win throws outside his frame. Dortch might be bigger in person than the listing suggests, another note to verify this week. Bubble battles: Meeks, Hassanein, and Turner Number 13 is no longer Craig Reynolds. It is Jackson Meeks, an undrafted wideout possibly sliding toward tight end duties. The staff will test whether he is a supersized receiver or a true hybrid. There is a depth need for that body type behind Isaac TeSlaa, and Kendrick Law is out for the year. Meeks draws fan buzz, but he still must prove it after practice-squad time last season. Ahmed Hassanin shares that spotlight. Both Meeks and Hassanein have supporters, yet their NFL evidence is limited to flashes. Meeks might have the cleaner path today. Hassanin's chances could hinge on Peyton Turner. If Turner is healthy and close to his first-round traits, he grabs a job. Marcus Davenport, despite his own injuries last season, mentored young players. Turner could fill that presence too, even if health becomes an issue. Mekhi Wingo's best position Mekhi Wingo needs a defined role. He is compact for the interior. The staff will test him as a heavy end or as an undersized three-tech. The goal is to find a lane that maximizes leverage and burst. With a crowded room, any clarity on his spot and place in the pecking order matters. LSU ties run deep on this staff, and the desire to unlock Wingo is real. Programming notes and NFL headlines Daily recap shows land later in the day during minicamp. A live Detroit Lions Podcast on Wednesday remains possible. Jeff also addressed two NFL items. Aldon Smith's passing at 36 is a sobering reminder that players carry real lives and real struggles. On the salary-cap front, void years are surging. Myles Garrett's deal includes eight void years. The Lions use void years often. Patrick Mahomes added four. It front-loads flexibility and pushes charges forward. Helpful now, potentially costly later. #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #detroitlionsminicamp #juicescruggs #christianmahogany #gregdortch #puntreturner #yardsaftercatch #jacksonmeeks #ahmedhassanein #peytonturner #marcusdavenport #mekhiwingo #voidyears Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of the Audiobook Lovin Series, we're diving into one of the most important ways listeners can support authors, narrators, and publishers, reviews. Whether you're new to reviewing audiobooks or a seasoned ALC team member, we'll discuss what makes a review helpful, why it's important to credit narrators, what information listeners are actually looking for, and why simply repeating the book blurb doesn't help fellow readers. We'll also break down FTC disclosure requirements, explain why transparency matters, and discuss what reviewers need to know when sharing recommendations and promotional content.

As a keen reader - teetering on the obsessive actually, I read upwards of 600 books a year - I've had to get very good at choosing which books to focus on. I want to lock-on to the right ones fast + ditch the wrong ones for me faster. AI has changed how I do that. In this solo show I share exactly how I use it to get better recommendations, decide whether to abandon a book + extract the good bits from a dull one without suffering through 19 hours of dry-as-dust prose with no pay-off. Ask me how I know that last one... Plus, how to use it when there are topics you just can't face right now. More useful than it sounds in these turbulent times Look for more solo shows where I share ideas you can use immediately.

Welcome to the latest Midlife Minute. Today, I'm taking a closer look at oral contraceptive use in perimenopause and menopause, exploring how oral contraceptives work, how they suppress or blunt perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms, alter hormone signaling and testing, what women may experience when they stop taking them, and why the gut microbiome is an essential part of the conversation. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: How oral contraceptives suppress certain key signaling hormones, making it difficult to assess women's menopausal status accurately What women may experience when transitioning off oral contraceptives How long-term oral contraceptive use can alter gut microbial function and inflammatory pathways The association between long-term oral contraceptive use and nutrient depletion Why the standard reproductive hormone markers used to assess menopause (especially FSH/LH) are unreliable while on the pill How the microbiome changes that occur as women age may compound the effects of previous oral contraceptive use Helpful dietary, microbiome, and lifestyle strategies to support women navigating the post-pill transition Connect with Cynthia Thurlow   Follow on X, Instagram & LinkedIn Check out Cynthia's website.

In this episode, my sister Diana Sahakian and I talk honestly about why so many smart, capable women stay stuck in cycles they want to break. Many women know what they should do, yet still find themselves struggling in the same areas of life, whether it's relationships, faith, health, emotional well-being, or stress. We talk about emotional overload, burnout, exhaustion, survival mode, and the hidden pressures that often keep us stuck in unhealthy cycles. Not another plan. Not another strategy. Just an honest conversation about what's really going on beneath the surface, and how to begin moving forward with God's help.

But have you paused to reflect if logging sleep is helpful or harmful to your sleep or mental health? Is all that data actually useful? In this episode I'm talking you through the pros and cons of logging sleep. I hope this episode encourages you to be more intentional with logging, or even to stop all together if you notice some of the potential negative impacts. Connect with Kim Grab a free sleep myth busting guide and learn more about working with Kim: https://intuitiveparentingdc.com/Instagram: instagram.com/intuitive_parenting_dcFacebook:  facebook.com/intuitiveparentingdc

A bot can sound warm, responsive, and confident, and still teach the wrong thing. That's the tension we dig into as we explore AI tutors, AI coaches, and practice bots through the lens that matters most to instructional designers: practice design that improves real performance, not just chat transcripts.Jackie walks through why AI can absolutely help us scale practice, create interactions faster, and give learners more chances to rehearse, reflect, and try again. But Jackie also draws a hard line: a conversation is not automatically learning, and “AI tutor” does not automatically mean “good feedback.” We break down what never changes in learning design, including clear goals, realistic scenarios, feedback tied to a standard, and a safe path back to real-world application.Then we get practical with four predictable risk areas (inaccurate feedback, generic responses, overtrust, and sensitive use cases like HR, legal, medical, mental health, or private data). From there, I share where AI is usually a best fit, plus five design requirements you can use to build better guardrails, including human escalation. You'll also get a simple decision framework I call the Help Fit test: Helpful, Evidence-based, Low risk, Protected, along with a concrete customer service role play example to show what “good architecture” looks like.If you want to use AI in training responsibly, this is your roadmap. Subscribe, share the episode with a fellow designer, and leave a review if the framework helps you design smarter practice.

Send us Fan MailTouch is one of the most debated topics in movement education.Some teachers believe tactile cueing is one of the most effective tools available. Others argue that it is often overused, creates dependency, or becomes a shortcut for unclear communication.In this episode of The Pilates Exchange, Hannah and Christian dive into the tactile cueing debate and explore a question that is far more interesting than whether touch is "good" or "bad":How do great teachers decide which tool to use, when, and why?We discuss:when tactile cueing can accelerate learning and body awarenesswhy touching a client should never be the default solutionthe difference between helping someone learn and simply moving them into positionbodily autonomy, consent, and respecting client boundarieshow teacher ego can sometimes influence coaching decisionswhether tactile cueing creates independence or dependencyand why the best teachers develop a wide range of communication tools rather than relying on a single approachUltimately, this conversation is not really about touch.It is about decision-making, teaching philosophy, communication, and how we can better serve the human being standing in front of us.Because tactile cueing is neither inherently good nor inherently bad.Like every coaching choice, it should be made intentionally, respectfully, and in service of the client's learning experience.Season Sponsor:OfferingTree is an all-in-one business management platform built for boutique pilates and fitness studios.

from bigfinish website The Big Finish Paul Spragg Memorial Short Trip Opportunity honours the memory of our much-loved colleague and friend, a stalwart of the Big Finish production office who passed away suddenly on 8 May 2014. We're searching for an emerging talent to write a Doctor Who short story that will be released as an audiobook at Christmas – and this year, the topic is "The First Doctor". The competition runs for five weeks, starting today and closing in the middle of June. Commemorating Paul Big Finish's Executive Producer Nicholas Briggs said: "It's always a special time to remember our dear friend Paul. It's particularly exciting for me this year as we're focussing on the First Doctor, who has been something of a passion of mine recently. Can't wait to read the story submissions for this!" The First Doctor Range producer Peter Anghelides said: "In the ten years since we launched this memorial competition, we've never had a winning story featuring the First Doctor. This is the year we're changing that. "We want to read your proposal for a standalone Short Trip with a brand new idea that showcases him in a short story for a single reader that we'll publish at the end of this year. "Your story will be inspired by the character of the First Doctor as we saw him on TV. It's an era when each story naturally offered a new perspective on the continuing series – so we want your proposal to demonstrate that kind of originality and inventiveness. What fresh characters, adversaries, locations, concepts and perspectives can you devise for a compelling short story?" In addition to naming a winner, Big Finish will also identify a shortlist of commendations. "In recent competitions, the standard of entries has been wonderful," said Peter Anghelides. "Although we will have only one winner, we thought it appropriate this year to name and commend other strong contenders." Before you enter the competition, please carefully read the 2026 guidelines below and the accompanying terms and conditions on the Big Finish website. They contain important information that explains eligibility, theme, word count, deadline, and how to submit your story idea. We look forward to reading your entries. Good luck! Helpful advice from previous winners You can get a feeling for what a successful competition entry looks like by checking out the previous ten winners. Recordings of each are available on the Big Finish website as free downloads, along with the final script and the original winning submissions from each year. The Paul Spragg Memorial Short Trip Opportunity 2026 Guidelines The competition is to identify talent, enthusiasm, and ability to write to a specification – so everything you need to know is in these guidelines and the accompanying terms and conditions. Please note that no correspondence will be entered into, either during the entry period or afterwards, and the judges' decision is final. Entry into this competition requires that you have read and accepted the full terms and conditions. By entering, you indicate that you have done so. SUBMISSION PROCESS: All entries must be submitted electronically to competitions@bigfinish.com, either as a Word-compatible document or a PDF document, formatted as per these guidelines, and received by Big Finish before 23:59 (UK time) on Thursday 11 June 2026. YOUR EMAIL MESSAGE: Include the entrant's full name and a contact email address only in the body of your email. Include your title (e.g. Attack of the Glurgs) in the Subject line. Don't include any details of your background or previous writing experience – your submission should speak for itself. Attach your anonymised entry document to the email. THE ATTACHED DOCUMENT: The document must consist of two parts in a single document: a one page synopsis that is no more than 500 words, and a one-page excerpt from your story of a further 500 words maximum (prose, not drama script). This is to give an indication of the writer's ability and intentions for a 4,500-word story, which can change if the full story is commissioned. These word count limits for the synopsis and extract are a strict requirement this year. Name the attached file only with your story title (e.g. Attack of the Glurgs.PDF) Do NOT include personally identifying details in your document (for example, name or email address), or the entry will be disqualified. THEME AND CONTENT: Submissions should propose a short story featuring the First Doctor and set at any time in the universe of the Doctor Who television series between An Unearthly Child and The Tenth Planet. THINGS YOU MAY DO: You may use any of the First Doctor's regular companions (or none of them) as they appeared in TV episodes: Susan, Ian, Barbara, Vicki, Steven, Katarina, Dodo, Ben and Polly. Your story should feature the character of the First Doctor as we saw him on TV. We want your proposal to wow us with its originality and inventiveness. So what fresh characters, adversaries, locations, concepts and perspectives can you devise for a compelling short story? THINGS TO AVOID: Do NOT create a new companion for the Doctor, nor use other companions from TV or elsewhere. Do NOT include other Doctors or Time Lords.

I recently sat down with pastor Jeff Bucknam from Harvest Bible Chapel, and I shared parts of my story I've never shared this openly before…  From leaving a war-torn country… to Green Bay… to study medicine… to heartbreak… to discovering God's call in ministry… to church hurt… to the expansion of ministry into humanitarian work… to continuing to wait on God… This conversation is more than just a story. It's a reminder that God wastes nothing. If you've ever: • wondered how God uses painful seasons • struggled to trust His direction • felt discouraged in ministry • questioned your purpose • or needed hope that your story still matters… … this conversation is for you. Because sometimes the hardest parts of our story become the very places God moves most powerfully.   Helpful resources:

He goes on to explain the techniques he developed to solve those problems and how that led him to becoming a full-time content creator.He also talks about his view on the traditional lecture format in university teaching, and where it falls short for many students. He points out the gaps that are created through disjointed delivery and the importance of ‘the why' when communicating complex topics.Taim's main take is that everybody has something valuable to teach.

Planning a vacation should be exciting—not overwhelming. But between choosing a destination, booking flights, creating an itinerary, and figuring out logistics, it's easy to feel stressed before your trip even begins. At The Travel Brats, we've planned everything from last-minute city getaways to international adventures booked nearly a year in advance. Over time, we've learned that the best trips happen when you focus on smart planning without overplanning every minute. Here's our step-by-step guide to planning a vacation the right way.   1. Start With Your "Why" Before choosing a destination, ask yourself: Do I want relaxation or adventure? Am I traveling for food, culture, nature, or nightlife? Am I recharging or packing my schedule? Your answer determines everything from budget to destination to daily activities. Helpful questions to research: Is this destination better for couples, friends, or families? Is it good for digital nomads? Can I visit without renting a car? Does it offer more adventure or relaxation? The clearer your travel goals, the easier every other decision becomes.   2. Set Your Dates and Budget You don't need an exact budget, but you need a realistic one. Consider: Number of travel days Flight costs Hotel or Airbnb costs Food and drinks Transportation Activities and excursions Most importantly, leave room for unexpected expenses. A good vacation budget includes a buffer because travel rarely goes exactly as planned. Also factor in important deadlines such as: PTO approval School breaks Weddings Special events   3. Choose Your Destination Strategically Timing can completely change your experience. Ask yourself: What's in season during my travel dates? Will weather affect the trip? Is it peak tourist season? How long is the travel time? Is the destination easy to navigate? If you only have a few vacation days, shorter flights often win. We've seen travelers hate destinations during crowded peak seasons and fall in love with the same places during shoulder season. Research matters.   4. Book the Big Stuff First Follow this order: ✈️ Flights

Gen Z is one of the most anxious generations in history, and many people feel stuck wondering why anxiety still lingers even though they love God. Is anxiety simply medical? Is it spiritual? Or is there something deeper happening in our formation and discipleship? In this conversation, we explore what the Bible actually says about anxiety, fear, control, and trust. You'll see that even faithful people in Scripture struggled with fear, and that feeling anxious does not mean you are failing spiritually. God's response to anxiety is not shame. It's invitation. The goal is not to never feel anxious. The goal is to not let anxiety lead you. If you've been battling anxious thoughts, emotional overwhelm, or fear about the future, this episode is for you.   Helpful resources:
