It’s easy to feel stressed, overwhelmed, and anxious when we focus on the turmoil in the world (or our own lives). Media and culture don’t help because they are constantly feeding us worrisome things. However, there is hope! My guest on the podcast today, Brant Hansen, (links below) has an encouraging new book set to release in just two weeks: Life is Hard, God is Good, Let’s Dance. Brant reminds us that we truly can have peace and abiding joy – no matter our circumstances – if Jesus is the center of our lives.
