Folks, we have a good one for you today. Brian and I discuss anxiety and depression in men today. What it is and where it is coming from. We briefly discuss the Robert Morris scandal. There are many lessons to learn for the church as a whole and the trend with megachurch pastors falling from grace. To all of you out there, if you fall into anxiety or depression reach out. You are valued. You are loved. God be with you all!
