How Can I Stop Worrying? –Overview

Paul J. Bucknell

Try and draw a line to match them before you find the answers below.

A Christian can begin to overcome worry by simply practicing the main points in the first four sessions. See if you can remember them!

The hill is shaped like our Bridge of Hope. We leave a definite path and purpose. We are aiming for the peace from God.

Session #2 — Deepening Understanding

Session #3 — Deciding Choices

The inverted "V" stands for the way we respond to our anxious thoughts. Either we will tolerate them and then worry (left side) or I will humble myself and trust God and find His peace (right side).

Session #4 — Discerning Patterns
