Can Christians struggle with anxiety and still trust God?This is a different kind of episode. No studio, no guest, no filter.Just Denis at 11pm in his mom's workroom, being honest aboutsomething he's been carrying for months: Christian anxiety,double-mindedness, and the real struggle to trust God throughinternship rejections, pressure, and a mind that won't stop.He talks about staying up until 2am, feeling the weight of school,a part-time job he's praying every day is his last, and a job marketthat keeps sending rejection emails. He locked himself in the bathroomand read the entire book of James. The first paragraph stopped himcold, being double-minded, one side believing God, the other incomplete disarray. That's exactly where he's been.This isn't polished. There's no clean ending. Just an honest look atwhat it actually looks like to walk with Christ when your mind won'tquiet down, and why trusting God can feel impossible even after He'sproven Himself time and time again.If you're a Christian struggling with anxiety, or anyone askingwhether God actually has a plan, this one's for you.———🎙️ UNTUCK YOUR CROSSA Christian podcast covering athletics, fashion, entrepreneurship,and daily life — all through a bold, honest, faith-first lens.New episodes every other Tuesday.🎙️ Listen & Subscribe: Spotify | Apple Podcasts | YouTube |✝️ Follow Untuck Your Cross: Instagram → @untuckyourcrosspodcast TikTok → @untuck_your_cross📩 Want to be a guest or have a topic suggestion?
