About this episode

Dr. Alex Loyd and Harry Loyd discuss anxiety as the second pandemic and explore God's solutions compared to self-help methods.

This is a FOUNDERS GROUP opportunity. Join Practice of Paradise: https://store.dralexanderloyd.com/products/practice-of-paradise Dr. Alex Loyd and Harry Loyd tackle the second pandemic: ANXIETY. Over 70% of people are being negatively affected by anxiety in some way. THE CORE TEACHING: If I'm in care, anxiety, and worry—then thoughts haven't been taken captive. But what does God say to do AFTER you take thoughts captive? ❌ Not: Logically analyze it ❌ Not: Scream ❌ Not: "Just think happy thoughts" ✅ God says: "Take it captive and IMMEDIATELY GIVE IT TO ME." It's a hot potato. Capture it and cast it onto God. THE ALARMING STATISTICS: Harvard Medical School Study: - BEFORE COVID: 20% of college students had diagnosable depression/anxiety - AFTER COVID: 35% overall, 45% for women - Dr. Nestler calls it "THE SECOND PANDEMIC" GOD'S INSTRUCTION: 2 Corinthians 10:5: "We take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ." But HOW? DR. ALEX: "It's PRAYER. It's prayer." "Take it captive and then it's a HOT POTATO. Immediately give it to Me. Cast it onto Me." 📚 Resources & Links: Free Trilogy + Healing Codes: https://www.dralexanderloyd.com/free Website…
