On this week’s podcast episode, Katie and Lee share their hearts on the topic of worry and worship, through: confessions, encouragement, and practical steps to move forward in freedom. Be uplifted through this candid conversation among friends.

Discover the importance of starving worry and feasting on worship, and learn how to turn from the path of panic and move toward the lush path of peace.

Today’s Verse: Proverbs 3:5-6
Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
and do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make straight your paths.
