Eric Johnson joins us this week to talk about how he walked through his emotional breakdown in 2018. He’ll also share about the danger of avoiding our emotions, and how to wrestle with the deep issues of the soul. Currently, Eric and his wife, Candace, are the senior leaders of Studio in Greenville, South Carolina, and previously, they served as the senior pastors of Bethel Church in Redding, California. I believe Eric’s wisdom will challenge and encourage you in your own walk today.
Partner Spotlight:
But first, I am so excited to tell you about a resource that has made a massive difference in my life recently, and that’s the Abide Pray and Meditation app. A couple of months ago, when anxiety really reared its ugly head out of the blue, I found Abide, an app that provides daily meditations through Scripture, stories for deep, restful sleep, and quiet music. If you’re having trouble sleeping, are stressed out, or struggle with anxiety like I do, you have to give this app a try. Nearly immediately, I felt a difference in how effectively I fell asleep at night and woke up each morning. So listen, I want you to download the app today and find peace amidst the chaos in your life. Right now, I have a special offer when you subscribe: 25% off your first year when you sign up for the premium subscription, but only if you text WIN to 22433. Friends, with this discount, for the cost of a couple of pizzas which will keep you up at night anyway, you can calm anxiety down and bring peace to your hectic life. Do it today. You won’t be sorry. Again, text WIN to 22433, that’s WIN to 22433.
