Stress, anxiety, and fear are not just personal struggles. They are part of the daily pressure almost everyone is carrying right now.

In this episode of Off the Mountain, the conversation gets real as John Ranger joins the table to talk openly about what it means to live under constant stress, and how fear and anxiety can quietly shape our thoughts, decisions, and faith if we do not address them.

Together, we unpack questions many people are asking but rarely say out loud.

Why does anxiety feel so overwhelming at times?

What triggers fear in our everyday lives?

How do we find peace when the pressure does not let up?

What does it actually look like to trust God in the middle of mental and emotional strain?

This is not a surface level conversation. It is practical, honest, and deeply relatable, offering insight into how stress builds, how anxiety takes root, and how we can begin to respond with clarity, faith, and healthier rhythms.

Pastor Ron Vietti is absent from this episode but will be back next week, and the conversation continues strong as we lean into real tools, real hope, and real perspective for navigating life when fear and pressure feel louder than peace.

If you have ever felt overwhelmed, restless, or stuck in your own head, this episode is for you.

Listen in. Breathe deep. You are not alone.
