How To Use Faith To Rewire Your Mind

Alanna Ruiz Unger and Igancio Saenz Lancuba
About this episode

In this episode, we talk about the importance of mental health and how it has been viewed over the years. While life can be overwhelming at times, we discuss how turning to Jesus helps us find comfort, perspective, and healing. Instead of allowing anxiety and fear to control us, we are reminded that through prayer and trust in God, we can overcome challenges and experience the calm that only He can bring. This conversation offers hope for those seeking a way out of stress and a path towards lasting peace through faith.
