Summary

Following a discussion of various conspiracy theories, bad driving, and why the Spinners will never record episodes while in a car with Aimee at the wheel…the conversation turns to the topic of anxiety. To broach the subject, the crew welcomes Pierce Taylor Hibbs. He’s the associate director of the Center for Theological Writing at Westminster Theological Seminary, and author of Struck Down But Not Destroyed - Living Faithfully With Anxiety. Pierce talks about his experience of living with clinical anxiety for over 12 years, about a faith crisis in the midst of anxiety attacks, and the guilt that comes with it. Is anxiety always a sin problem, or are there different kinds of anxiety caused by emotional burdens? Is there such a thing as “noble” anxiety? Whether you suffer from anxiety or not, this conversation will give you a good perspective on a common malady, keeping God’s glory and the Christian’s well-being in proper balance.

1:02.2	conspiracy theories. And the housewife theologian from, is it Maryland you now live in?
1:07.6	Maryland. Maryland. And trying to think about how the podcast could move into the future.
1:13.9	We've been looking at some other projects that been going on and we've noticed that Jen Wilkin now does this podcast.

1:34.3	Well, the answer is no for a very good reason.
1:37.3	I drive a two-seater, I drive a two-seater master, so he couldn't all fit into my car. Todd Pruitt's car stinks of stale tobacco smoke,
1:45.6	and there's no way I'm spending any time in that.
1:48.4	And if Amy Bird is driving, frankly, I'd be too terrified to make any...
