Fear & Anxiety

How to Overcome Anxious Thoughts | Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin preaches from Hebrews 13:7-9 to show that anxious, negative thoughts can be changed by reorienting our thinking toward the consistent, gracious character of God. He argues that Christians often fill unknowns with worst-case scenarios, consume content that trains cynicism, and let inconsistent human leaders or past experiences dictate their view of God.

The War Against Worry - Grant Troutt
Grant Troutt preaches on Jesus' command in Matthew 6:25-34 to stop living in anxiety and to reorient our focus from self to God.

Something Is Missing - Noah Herrin
Noah argues that when the right thing - Jesus and His rhythms - is missing from our lives, everything else can feel wrong and leave us anxious. He uses 1 Peter 5:7 and Matthew 11:28 to show that we must first believe Jesus truly cares, then live at the pace Jesus modeled, and actively 'catch' anxious thoughts so we can 'cast' them onto Him.

Fear's Greatest Hit - Brad Straarup

Throw The Confetti - Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin preaches from Philippians 4 urging the church to make gratitude a regular habit - what he calls "throw the confetti." Using Paul's command to "rejoice in the Lord always," he argues that joy is found in the presence of God, not in circumstances, and that thanksgiving in prayer displaces anxiety. Herrin illustrates the habit with personal stories (his wife's daily reminder to "throw confetti," an airport delay danced through, and his own mental-health practices) and practical gospel theology (Paul writing from prison).
