Worry (Part 1)

The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg
In this thought-provoking talk, Steve Gregg explores the theme of worry and how it relates to our attitudes towards work, faith, and self-reliance. Using biblical references and personal anecdotes, he argues that worrying is ultimately futile and only serves to undermine our trust in God's guidance and provision. Instead, we should focus on living a life of purpose and integrity, regardless of our circumstances, and trust that God will sustain us and provide for our needs.
