What if resilience isn't about being the toughest person in the room, but the most surrendered? In this conversation, Candace and author/artist Ruth Chou Simons continue their Overcoming Anxiety series by exploring a deeply biblical, spiritually honest approach to resilience. Ruth shares why her husband Troy embodies resilience—not because life is easy, but because he treats every failure as “an opportunity to grow.” Candace reflects on her own journey, including public criticism and misunderstood motives. Together, they break down a countercultural truth: being resilient is less about muscling through and more about walking closely with God. They talk openly about long seasons when Bible reading felt dry or inconsistent, how daily Scripture functions as a slow deposit rather than a quick emotional transaction, and why spiritual disciplines (Bible, prayer, rest, Sabbath) are God's training plan for endurance. Candace shares how James 1 and the parable of the talents steadied her through some of her hardest public seasons. Ruth vulnerably opens up about losing a long-time ministry partner and the grief, confusion, and rerouting that followed. The episode closes with two tender listener questions—one from 17-year-old Inga about finding time with God before early mornings, and one about learning to hear God in a world full of distractions. If you've ever felt worn thin, spiritually tired, or unsure how to keep going, this episode offers companionship, Scripture, and a fresh way to see resilience through the lens of surrender.Connect with Candace and Ruth Candace on Instagram @candacecbure  Follow the Podcast on Instagram @candacecameronburepodcast  Follow the Podcast on TikTok @ccbpodcast Follow Ruth Chou Simons on Instagram: @ruthchousimons Website: https://ruthchousimons.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/RuthChouSimons Sponsors For This Episode -Grand Canyon University: https://www.gcu.edu/ -Operation Christmas Child SamaritansPurse.org/occ -A'Del Natural Cosmetics https://adelnaturalcosmetics.com/ -IFCJ ifcj.org-Mr. Pen: http://candacepens.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Matthew 28 : 18 is not a comfort phrase; it is a command. Christ reigns over disease, debt, doubt and death. When He is present, panic loses power.Paragraph 2 – Reflection Faith is not the absence of fear; it is the decision to trust the One who rules over it. When we place our lives under His authority, we gain confidence the world cannot give. His rule brings calm to the mind and strength to the heart.Paragraph 3 – Intercession & Vision We pray for believers in the Philippines, South Africa, Canada and Norway. May their faith rise above fear. Let families and churches be filled with courage and peace. May the authority of Jesus Christ be known in every home and nation.Prayer PointsPrayer for freedom from fear and anxiety through Jesus.Pray for strength and faith in times of worry.Prayer for peace when life feels out of control.Ask God to replace fear with trust in Christ.Prayer for calm minds and restored hearts.Declare that Jesus has authority over every storm.Pray for families battling stress and insecurity.Ask God to bring courage to leaders and pastors.Pray that faith rises in nations facing uncertainty.Thank God that Christ's authority defeats fear forever.Life ApplicationWhen fear tries to speak, answer with Matthew 28 : 18 — All authority belongs to Jesus.

The same God who gave His Son still guards His people through every uncertain season.Paragraph 2 – Reflection When doubts rise, remember: the Cross is the final word on your worth. You are loved without condition and secured without question. In every culture and circumstance, the love of Jesus remains the greatest antidote to anxiety.Paragraph 3 – Intercession & Vision We pray for all who lie awake tonight under the weight of worry; for students in India, parents in South Africa, workers in London, believers in New York.

Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.'” — John 6 : 35In a world chasing security, Jesus offers something deeper than comfort—He offers Himself. John 6 : 35 declares that He alone satisfies the restless heart and the anxious mind. When fear of lack rises, the Bread of Life reminds us that Heaven's supply never runs dry. Across Indonesia, Ethiopia, Turkey, and Argentina, believers lift empty hands to a generous God. He fills not only the stomach but the soul, teaching us to trust more and fear less. At midday, we turn from worry to worship and remember: Christ is enough.Paragraph 1 – Context Modern life is built on striving—more work, more wealth, more control—yet still we hunger. John 6 : 35 reveals the answer that anxiety cannot find: Jesus Himself is our provision. When economies shake and plans unravel, His promise remains unchanged. The Bread of Life feeds faith where fear once ruled.Paragraph 2 – Reflection Worry says, I must provide. Faith whispers, He already has. In every nation and every circumstance, Christ invites us to come, believe, and be filled. True security is not the absence of need but the presence of Jesus. When we seek first His kingdom, lack loses its power.Paragraph 3 – Intercession & Vision We pray for believers under economic pressure in Indonesia, Ethiopia, Turkey, and Argentina.

On this episode, Overcoming Anxiety: Letting Go of What You Can't Control, Benjamin talks about what is feels like to battle anxiety - those moments when you're sitting in your car, frozen by fear, feeling unseen, overwhelmed, and unsure how to move forward. He unpacks how to re-frame anxiety, anchor your identity in God, clarify control, and find hope by simply doing the next right thing. You'll learn how to stop obsessing over what you can't control, take responsibility for what you can, and walk by faith even when it's hard. This episode is a reminder that you are not alone, God is with you in the middle of your struggle. And with a perspective shift and few tools things can and will get better. Anxiety is not your identity and not your future. Episode Quote: "Every ounce of energy you pour into things outside your control is energy stolen from what God actually put in your hands - your habits, your faith, your assignment. That's the heart of this teaching - you need to surrender what is out of your control and give your full focus and attention to the assignment in front of you. If you can't do anything about it, why are you wasting time obsessing about it. “Your time is too valuable and your calling too sacred to waste it on what you can't change.” This episode, like all Rise and Lead Podcast episodes, is highly practical and motivating.

#378 In this powerful episode, Guy welcomed back Cailin Callaghan to discuss overcoming anxiety, the significance of lucidity in the world, and mastering self-talk. Cailin shared her journey through near-death experiences, overcoming sexual assault trauma, and the grueling withdrawal from medications. She emphasized the transformative power of attention, perception, and taking control of the mind. The conversation covered practical steps to relieve anxiety, the importance of forgiving for personal peace, and how to listen to inner guides. This episode is filled with deep insights on achieving inner peace and manifesting a better reality. About Cailin: At the age of twenty in 1978, I made a trip to the Lustrous Vast of Quantum Imminence where I was met by the guide whom I had, five years before, dismissed as merely the imaginary friend of my childhood. He, The Daemon Michael, is the source Consciousness from which I spring into this world venue, and he and I operate in a few other venues together as well while my body is sleeping here in Earth Venue.  When I met him in the Lustrous Vast, T. D. Michael gave me a life review and a revelation of what Humanity is doing that is destroying their happiness and preventing access to all the powers of their “godly estate.” Empowered by this revelation, and inspired by the Divine Love I became while in the Lustrous Vast, I wielded my Will to literally raise my body from the dead. (It's not hard to do when you know what you are and what the Earth is.) My body had died from head trauma when a stallion had kicked me in the face, knocking me from the back of the running mare I'd been astride, chasing that stallion. My body lay in a pasture with my friend running towards it. As she stood over my still form, thinking I was dead and wondering what to do since we were so isolated, I, like a gusting whirlwind of Will, reinhabited my form, and the body's eyes popped open.  I started right away trying to deliver to the world the Liberating Perspective The Daemon Michael had given me, but it was 1978, and the world was not acquainted yet, in large, with the Quantum principles I/We had to offer.

Summary In this episode of the Ali Damron Show, Ali discusses the pervasive issue of anxiety, sharing her personal experiences and insights gained from working with patients over the years. She emphasizes that anxiety is not a character flaw but a learned brain pattern that can be unlearned through understanding and practical strategies. The conversation covers the science behind anxiety, the importance of emotional expression, and actionable steps to engage with life despite anxiety. Ali encourages listeners to practice self-compassion and to view anxiety as a protective mechanism rather than a debilitating condition. Takeaways Anxiety manifests differently for everyone, both physically and mentally. Understanding anxiety as a learned behavior can empower individuals to change their responses. Neuroplasticity allows us to unlearn anxiety and create new brain pathways. Labeling anxiety as a false alarm can help diffuse its power. Allowing feelings of anxiety without resistance is crucial for healing. Engaging in life despite anxiety is essential for personal growth. Emotional expression is key to processing underlying feelings that contribute to anxiety. Self-compassion is vital in the journey of overcoming anxiety. Avoidant behaviors reinforce anxiety; facing fears is necessary for progress. Practicing small steps towards facing anxiety can lead to significant changes. Sound bites "Anxiety is not a character flaw." "Label it as a false alarm." "Self-compassion is key."

Can Christians and anxiety go hand in hand? The answer is a resounding yes. Christians and anxiety often go hand in hand. Not because of a lack of faith, but because we live in a broken world in which many things can impact mental, physical, and spiritual health. 400th Episode Friends, I cannot believe this is the 400th episode. When I set out to start the podcast five and a half years ago, I thought I'd share stories of women and men reinventing themselves as entrepreneurs and starting their second phase. My idea quickly morphed into something more. Not only did I want to inspire others to follow their values, visions, and passions and discover a purpose greater than themselves, but I also wanted to help guide them in this pursuit. Because so much of my focus was on building a business, naturally, the content we created became more about business growth advice and stories of success. We added small doses of faith, mental health, mindset, and wellness to round out the content. As I was thinking about what to do in celebration of this episode, because I think it is a big deal to make it this far, someone sent me an email. The email was in response to an email I sent about using journaling as a tool to navigate anxiety. It read: I don't get anxiety, period, if one is of faith in Jesus Christ! Goodbye. The old me would have quickly hit return and tried to convince him that having faith doesn't mean you will never have anxiety. But instead, I thought, 'No, he said goodbye, which made me chuckle; let him go.' People like him cannot be convinced, and it isn't my job to change his perspective. Instead, I decided to take advantage of his lack of understanding to create content that could help many. The combination of Christians and anxiety does not have to cause shame. A perspective like his can cause a person who loves Jesus to feel shame over experiencing anxiety. No one needs an additional reason to feel shame. Living life as a human can result in enough shame, especially when experiencing brain health challenges. I wonder, as I'm writing this, what your thoughts are? Can one be a Christian and have anxiety? My thoughts are that as humans, we are not perfect. We are subject to human dysfunctions mentally, physically, and spiritually. Christians get diabetes. They get cancer, heart disease, autoimmune diseases, and neurological diseases. And yes, Christians experience mental health challenges too. We are not divine; therefore, we can be afflicted by ailments, illnesses, and diseases. To judge a Christian because they have a disease or ailment is simply unkind and results in shame. The key, for Christians and everyone, is to lean into Christ and our faith to navigate anxiety. When we put all of our trust in earthly solutions, we risk idolatry and anxiety rising. Proverbs 17:3 reminds us, "The crucible is for silver, and the furnace is for gold, and the Lord tries hearts." As heat refines gold and silver, God purifies us through challenging experiences such as anxiety and emotional chaos in our lives and relationships. Having anxiety isn't a punishment. If we choose, we can use it as a way to grow closer to God and allow Him to sanctify and purify us. Read the full show notes and access all links.

Andre and I discuss personal experiences with prayer, the transition from Catholic prayers to a more personal connection with God, and the importance of gratitude in prayer. The conversation delves into overcoming anxiety related to prayer, understanding spiritual warfare, and the process of building a relationship with God through communication. We explore the complexities of prayer, the importance of understanding fear and love in one's relationship with God, and the significance of confession and accountability. We discuss how to guard one's prayer life amidst busy schedules, the role of fasting, and the evolution of personal prayer styles. The dialogue emphasizes the need for authenticity in prayer and the power of speaking God's promises over oneself.Connect with Andre on Instagram @andregarshiaConnect with Jenn on Instagram @justknowthoughSend us a textJust Know Though Podcast offers a safe space to discuss mental health, including topics like depression and past trauma.

Godliness always brings a response. That response won't always be applause, but we need to choose godliness anyway. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses spiritual growth and the cost of following Jesus wholeheartedly. With the recent assassination of Charlie Kirk, it's tempting to let anxiety and worry about evil in our nation take hold—but the Lion of the tribe of Judah has already overcome all of Satan's plans. We've let a lukewarm Christianity settle in our communities for a while now, but we can change. At a time when it may feel easier or safer to stay quiet, one of the most important things we can do is acknowledge the authority of Jesus in public.
