How to maximize your weekends, plus Nancy Pearcey talks toxic masculinity, and should you tell a guy at church you want him to ask you out?   Featured musical artist: Kerrie Roberts   Roundtable: Ready for the Weekend!   We all look forward to the weekend, but how should we make the best use of our time and freedom? Our guests share what they love about Saturdays and Sundays, plus a few helpful ideas for prioritizing and managing our time, and common pitfalls to avoid that can gobble up precious hours and leave us feeling unproductive.           Leave Us a Voicemail   Culture: The Truth About Toxic Masculinity   Men today hear cultural messages on what it means to be a man: make lots of money, drive a nice car, date a beautiful girl; in short, be powerful and successful. But these things are self-driven and the opposite of what God calls masculinity: leading selflessly; protecting, providing for, and serving others. Professor Nancy Pearcey is a well-known researcher and writer on this topic, and joins us to separate the truth from the lies when it comes to appropriate manifestations of manhood in our families, churches and communities.       The Toxic War on Masculinity: How Christianity Reconciles the Sexes   Find Nancy's Website   Inbox: Should I Tell Him I Like Him?    She's known a guy at her church for two years and has hung out with him socially many times. She really wants him to ask her out, so is it time to admit her feelings?

Christian apologist and author Alisa Childers joins us for a candid conversation around unbiblical statements, platitudes and promises that sound good but are in fact dangerous.

Pastors' tips for finding a great small group, plus firsthand help for addiction recovery, and should a guy give a girl a gift on the first date?   Featured musical artist:  Je'kob   Roundtable: How to Choose a Small Group   We talk a lot about how one of the best ways to connect to other believers and truly grow is by “making the big church small.” Getting involved in a small group can do just that. But how do you find a small group that's a good fit? And what makes a small group successful? Two pastors with tons of experience in Christian community and discipleship share what makes a good small group, how groups can go deeper, different types of groups to try, and when to walk away and try something else.                   Leave Us a Voicemail   Culture: An Inside Look at Addiction (Part 1)   Addiction is no small thing, and one of the most painful experiences is falling prey to it, or seeing a friend or family member do so. Addicts either don't think they have a problem, or assume it's something to “fix” if they can muster up the willpower — but it goes so much deeper than that. Dr. Ken Harmon and Dr. Trent Langhofer, both former addicts, are now pastors and recovery experts whom God is using to help others. In part one of our conversation, they share their stories and give common misconceptions about addiction and recovery.      Healing the Scars of Addiction: Reclaiming Your Life and Moving Into a Healthy Future     Link to Counseling Services   Inbox: Should Guys Give a Gift on a First Date?   Is bringing a gift on your first date appropriate?

In today's episode, Gina discusses alcohol and how it can affect people with anxiety. Alcohol has a wide range of effects and can affect different individuals in different ways. One interesting paradox with alcohol is how it can suppress cortisol production on its initial pass through the body, but upon elimination cortisol production (and thus anxiety) increases. Listen in for more knowledge and wisdom about how alcohol may be affecting you and your anxiety and learn how to fix it!

Quote: The day after drinking can be a minefield of anxiety, filled with regrets and hangover-induced worries. -Dr. Lisa Anderson, Addiction Specialist Chapters 0:00:24 Introduction: Exploring Unseen Anxiety 0:02:27 The Potential for Anxiety from Drinking Alcohol 0:12:26 The Chronic Effects of Alcohol on Cortisol Levels 0:14:17 Managing Cortisol Levels and Anticipatory Stress 0:18:47 The Aftermath of Drinking: Anxiety and Regrets Summary In this episode of the Anxiety Coaches Podcast, Gina Ryan explores the often overlooked relationship between alcohol consumption and anxiety. She emphasizes that this issue should be approached from a health standpoint rather than a moral perspective. Ryan highlights several scenarios in which anxiety can arise from alcohol, including cravings for a drink, social pressures, feelings of guilt or regret from past experiences, and concerns about physical and mental health. She points out that even after the alcohol has left the body, anxiety can linger. Ryan also delves into the impact of alcohol on cortisol levels, a stress hormone, both during and after drinking. To further educate listeners, she recommends checking out Dr. Andrew Huberman's podcast for more in-depth information on the topic. Ultimately, Ryan's goal is to shed light on the connection between alcohol and anxiety and provide strategies for effectively managing it. During this segment of the podcast, I delve into the effects of alcohol on cortisol levels and stress. I explain that initially, alcohol can suppress the release of cortisol, creating a sense of relaxation and reduced stress. However, as the alcohol begins to leave the system, there is a rebound effect, leading to an increase in cortisol levels. Additionally, alcohol can disrupt sleep, which further contributes to elevated cortisol levels. Individuals struggling with alcohol use disorders may experience chronic stress and anxiety, resulting in prolonged elevation of cortisol levels, even during periods of not actively drinking. Withdrawal from alcohol can also intensify stress levels and anxiety, resulting in withdrawal symptoms like panic attacks. To mitigate the impact of alcohol on cortisol levels, I suggest individuals limit their alcohol consumption and incorporate stress reduction techniques such as exercise, meditation, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
