What if anxiety isn't proof that God has abandoned you?

In this powerful clip from The Anxiety Opportunity trailer, we explore one of the deepest truths of the Christian faith: Jesus himself experienced the feeling of abandonment on the cross—yet remained anchored in the reality of the Father's presence.

Many Christians assume that spiritual maturity means never struggling with anxiety, doubt, fear, or the dark night of the soul. But what if faith isn't built on our momentary feelings? What if God's presence remains true even when we can't feel it?

This conversation explores contemplative spirituality, anxiety, suffering, faith, and the practice of trusting God's reality beyond our subjective experience.

If you've wrestled with anxiety, panic, spiritual dryness, deconstruction, or the feeling that God is distant, you're not alone.

➡️ Join the conversation in the comments. Share your thoughts with curiosity, humility, and good faith as we learn from one another.

➡️ To go deeper, explore The Anxiety Opportunity course and discover practical tools for transforming anxiety into an opportunity for spiritual growth, resilience, and deeper connection with God.

📖 Based on the groundbreaking work of The Anxiety Opportunity: How Worry Is the Doorway to Your Best Self by Curtis Chang.
