Ep. 11: Fearfully & Wonderfully Wired (Your Anxiety or Depression is NOT a Flaw)

"If you were a real Christian, you wouldn't struggle with anxiety or depression."

FULL STOP.

I've been told this while smiling politely and screaming internally. I've definitely felt shame for feeling the way I did. So today, we're talking about it!

Here's the biggest takeaway - God didn't mess up when He created our nervous systems. He designed it that way on purpose. We'll break down why anxiety or depression aren't spiritual flaws, how trauma really does live in your body, and why fight-or-flight is evidence of intelligent design. From reflexes we're born with, to adrenaline that helps us survive, to the way our bodies instinctively protect what we love most....none of it is accidental.

We'll also talk about what Scripture actually says (spoiler: God never promised easy), and how He meets us in our fear instead of shaming us for it. This is your reminder that being anxious/depressed doesn't make you a bad Christian, it makes you human, and deeply known.

So if you love God and take anxiety meds, if you pray and have panic attacks, if you trust Him and still struggle, pull up a chair. You're wired. And you're held.
