Summary

Jason and Tori Benham describe the debilitating impact anxiety can have on our health, emotions, and faith. They define anxiety as “projected powerlessness” and believe it’s a form of spiritual warfare. The Benhams offer a 3-part strategy of “recognize” the source of anxiety, “renounce” the lies you’re tempted to believe, and “replace” the lies with God’s truth.
