Dealing with Anxiety

Missionaries Jeffery and Lauren Jones shared how God used their years on the mission field to bring deep personal healing through confession, repentance, and forgiveness. Lauren openly described her struggles with anxiety, grief, disordered eating, insecurity, and believing lies about her worth, explaining how the Lord gradually freed her from those burdens through Scripture, prayer, and learning to truly forgive others. Together they emphasized that Jesus came to heal, free, and restore people now, not just in eternity, and encouraged the college ministry to confront the roots of sin and woundedness early in life instead of hiding them. Their testimony pointed to the transforming power of the gospel, the importance of authenticity in Christian community, and the freedom found in fully surrendering to Christ.
