“One of the things that I love about the Bible is that it acknowledges anxiety exists. That in itself is amazing….But it also provides a solution….”

Lauren Schiano interviews Jay Withers, a mental health therapist, and Yvanne Komenan, a Christian from Côte d’Ivoire, West Africa. In this episode, they define anxiety and show tools that God has provided to help His children identify, face, and overcome it. They also discuss how Christians can approach this topic with compassion, avenues of support that people can pursue to get help with anxiety, and ways that Christians can listen and show support to those who are dealing with this challenge.
