The line from awareness to worry, plus readying your relationship for trials, and should you attend a Christian’s wedding to a non-Christian?
Featured musical artist: John Waller
Roundtable: Informed but Calm
Life is filled with unknowns. No matter how hard we try to predict the future, we can’t — nor can we adjust our circumstances to avoid pain. As we ponder what’s ahead, it’s one thing to be aware of what’s happening in the world, but it's very draining to always worry about it. But is staying worry-free even possible? Our guests discuss ways they’ve struggled with worry, plus how they’re learning to trust God now while still acknowledging and being concerned by what’s going on around them.
