    Anxiety (Part 2): Understanding Its Causes, Treatments, And Cases In The Bible" Series

    Contributed by Benjamin Utomo on Oct 7, 2021

    Like worry, not all anxiety is sinful. Unfortunately, anxiety is often a result of sin. If that was the case, the cure is to deal with the sin.

So, the Bible does talk about anxiety and how it steals peace and joy from our hearts. And more than that, it hinders us from being ...read more

    It makes no sense to be part of the same family and be mad when the father chooses to do for one what he hasn’t chosen to do for the other. Yet, this is precisely what happened in the parable Jesus told of two sons, either of whom were prodigal.

    “Jesus said, ‘There was a man who had two sons. And the younger of them said to his father, “Father, give me the share of property that is coming to me.” And he divided his property between them. Not many days later, the younger son gathered all he had and took a journey into a far country, and ...read more
