Is Anxiety A Sin
from Radically Christian Hosted by Wes McAdams and Marcus Stenson
You’ve heard it your whole life, “Do not be anxious about anything.” But what happens when that verse makes your anxiety worse? When the command to stop worrying just adds guilt on top of the worry you already can’t shake? Wes and Marcus get honest about the tension so many Christians feel around anxiety: caught between preachers who call it a sin and a culture that treats it as simply unavoidable. What does the Bible actually say? And is there a way out that doesn’t feel impossible or fake? This conversation might change the way you read Philippians 4:6, and the way you talk to yourself when anxiety hits.
