"Whatever you're anxious about, it's real. Don't feel dumb or ashamed because other people don't deal with the thing you're dealing with in the same way that you're dealing with it." — Vera Schmitz

This is something Vera has struggled with over the years in big and small ways, and her honest conversation about it is one you won't want to miss.

She talks about the importance of sharing your anxieties both with Jesus and with trusted Christian friends.
