FriDudes - Getting Real. Pursuing Truth.

Yes! You are in! Do you get anxious? Do you have a child that get anxious? That is what we tackle in this episode. Getting real and pursuing Truth. Here is your Play of the Day...

Interesting! Things that make you go hmmmm. We don't shy away from science or math on this podcast. And we don't shy away from secular or even two atheists talking to point to a bigger picture. BTW, that was the Daily Show, published on that 7th of May 2024, you can find the YouTube link in the episode description...

As for Jonathan Haidt's book, I bought it. That is called "The Anxious Generation" by Jonathan Haidt

When I hear an atheist talking about Faith, you have my attention.

As for anxiety, and a parent of this generation, all my three kids were born after 1995. I also coached and mentored their classmates. I witness this tsunami of anxiety. We parents would and can still be asking each other, what is going on?!

And if you were born after 1995 and listening to this, I hope this helps set you free. You are not alone. You have to deal with a wave of technology at a formidable age that none of us had to deal with.

So let's tackle what works.

Less phone, screen time and social media works.

Exercise works! Back up one episode to Deep Hikes.

Faith works! Listen to that Atheist. He says it himself. As perplexing it is for them, I am very grateful to Jonathan for not burying that Truth. Why does Faith work?

Hopeless or Hope, that is your choice.

As I've said countless times now, I can't show you God, I can show you results. Math and science above in full effect on the benefits of Faith.

Tough times explained in the Owners Manual.

Therapy works...especially a Christian therapist that combines the best

Don't be anxious formula is in the Owners Manual. Phil 4: 6-8

Philippians 4:6-8 NLT
Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise.
