As believers, we have a confidence that we are absolutely and irreversibly found in Christ and free from the penalty of sin. Yet, anxiety is common place among the people of God. But Jesus modeled for us a better way. Carl Hargrove will walk us through a Biblical, and practical approach to worry, anxiety and the things that weigh us down. With a focus on Matthew chapters 6 and 7, he will give us insights on how we can, with God’s help, battle the hard things of life with a peaceful and calm heart.

“The beginning of anxiety is the end of faith, and the beginning
of true faith is the end of anxiety.” - George Muller
