Anxiety is on the rise in our culture. And while there are a ton of great resources available, how can Catholics find a way forward? Is prayer enough? Should I feel guilty because I don’t trust God enough? What does the science teach about anxiety, its causes, and how to beat it?

Joining me on the show are Art Bennett and Dr. Lianna Bennett Haidar, co-authors of the new book “Anxiety: A Catholic Guide to Freedom from Worry and Fear.” In this episode, we get into the weeds of anxiety and provide clear guidance to help any Catholic who struggles with anxiety. (Psst… check out their book, which is super user friendly and helpful.)

Our conversation honors the integrated lens that we live by on this show and know that it will help you take steps in tackling anxiety in your life. Enjoy!
