Most major economic forecasters now expect U.S. growth in 2026 to hover around 1.5% to 2%—slow, but not a recession. Still, some analysts warn that a mild downturn is possible if inflation or global trade tensions flare. These looming possibilities can amplify stress about rising healthcare costs. On the next Faith & Finance Live, Rob West and Lauren Gajdek describe practical ways to ease the anxiety. Then, it’s on to calls. That’s Faith & Finance Live—where biblical wisdom meets today’s financial decisions—weekdays at 4pm Eastern/3pm Central on Moody Radio.
