How can Christians pursue emotional health while staying rooted in Jesus? In this episode, we unpack the importance of mental and spiritual rhythms for followers of Christ, drawing inspiration from Pete Scazzero’s The Emotionally Healthy Leader and Emotionally Healthy Spirituality.

We share real stories about dealing with anxiety, depression, comparison, and shame — and how practices like Sabbath rest, slowing down, prayer, and community have brought healing. You’ll hear about naming emotions with honesty, overcoming unhealthy thought patterns, and finding freedom in God’s compassion and forgiveness.

Whether you’re battling burnout, struggling with unforgiveness, or just wanting to build healthier rhythms with Jesus, this episode offers practical encouragement and biblical wisdom to help you grow.
