    Science, Scripture & Mental Health: Finding Healing in Christ | Carla Arges | 168

    A quick note: I apologize for the video quality in this episode. We experienced some unexpected issues post recording, and for a moment, it looked like we weren't going to be able to recover the footage at all. After prayer and persistence, we were able to restore it (lesser quality but we’ll take it!) I truly believe God wanted this conversation to be shared. Whenever something like this happens, I can't help but wonder if there's something in the message the enemy would rather keep from being heard. But God is greater, and I'm so grateful this conversation made it to you. I pray it encourages you exactly where you are today. 🤍 Let's stay connected: www.evolvingwithjessica.com 🌿 Looking for clean, plant-based skin care and first aid that actually works?
