God is not a heavenly Xanax. When you’re battling depression or anxiety, people often say things like “Just get right with God” or “Pray more.” But it’s not that simple — and the Bible doesn’t treat it that way either. What God gives us is even better: a roadmap to disciplined thinking. If you don’t control your thoughts, negative emotions will control your life. In this episode, we talk openly about depression, anxiety, broken relationships, and the pride that keeps us silent. We also face the truth: God won’t do everything for us. He gives us His Word — it’s up to us to obey it, think biblically, and take action. You’ll learn how to focus on what you can control, reframe toxic thoughts, and understand how thoughts shape emotions and emotions drive behavior. We talk about how vulnerability and humility open the door to healing, and how Philippians gives clear steps to renew your mind. Biblical truth and practical tools to help you take back control and find lasting peace.
