Scripting the Flip - Sermon On The Mount - Do Not Be Anxious

Lead Pastor Josh Carstensen continues our Sermon on the Mount series.

Have you ever felt overwhelmed or trapped by anxiety about the future or things beyond your control? Maybe it's a relentless worry about finances, family, or world events—or even just the constant buzz of stress that never seems to fade.

Today, Jesus addresses our anxiety. Through an honest look at our anxious hearts, guided by Jesus's timeless wisdom, we'll share practical ways to find spiritual peace right now. Imagine facing uncertainty without fear, trusting completely that your Heavenly Father truly sees you, cares deeply, and knows exactly what He's doing—even when life floods your basement.
