Struggling with anxiety, overthinking, or “what if” spirals? This special bonus episode from Faith Over Fear explores how to find peace through Scripture when your thoughts feel overwhelming and hard to control.

In this honest and deeply personal conversation, Jennifer Slattery and Carol McCracken unpack what’s really happening when anxiety takes over—and how God meets us in those moments. Through stories of health uncertainty, sleepless nights, and persistent fear, they reveal how biblical truth can interrupt anxious thought patterns and help us anchor our minds in God’s character.

Rather than trying to suppress anxiety, this episode offers a better path: renewing your mind through Scripture and learning to recognize the difference between fear-driven thoughts and God’s truth.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

• Why anxious thoughts often feel true—even when they’re not
• How “what if” thinking fuels anxiety and fear
• What it means to take every thought captive (2 Corinthians 10:5)
• Why suppressing anxiety can actually make it worse
• How to practice a simple “truth pause” when fear rises
• Practical ways to retrain your mind using Scripture
