I’m a Christian with Generalized Anxiety Disorder.

I’m a Christian, but when I was nine I had my first panic attack. I cried myself to sleep because I was afraid of change. Because the idea of dying scared me. Because heaven sounded boring, and eternity sounded terrifying. When I was thirteen, I was terrified of throwing up. The terror would give me … Continue reading I’m a Christian with Generalized Anxiety Disorder.

UPDATE: I Wrote A Book! (Preorder Now)

First of all, WOW. Thank you all so much for your support.

Friendship Breakups: The Thing (Almost) Everyone Goes Through But (Almost) No One Talks About

Like the pain of a breakup, friendship splits can have lasting effects—on your self-esteem, ability to trust people, and feeling of identity. They can leave you second-guessing yourself, wondering if you were the problem all along, or getting bitter about how the situation went down. It almost always involves grief—the feeling that someone who should be in your life isn’t anymore. They haven’t passed away, but they’re not present, either.

Year of the Bear: A Review of Bear McCreary’s Smorgasbord of 2022 Albums

It is that time of year once again. The time of year when I recover my WordPress password to Offer Unsolicited Opinions on Things You Don’t Care About. Unless you do (thanks, SEO!) In which case, welcome to Auds Yells About Music (Again). No Shaq. I don’t think I will. Everyone’s talking about music at … Continue reading Year of the Bear: A Review of Bear McCreary’s Smorgasbord of 2022 Albums

I Just Really Like Movie Sountracks, Okay??

Never talk to me or my son (the Lord of the Rings Extended Edition Soundtrack by Howard Shore) ever again. When I was growing up, my parents never acquiesced to playing children’s music in the car. I mean, my brother and I got to choose from time to time what played, but it was rarely … Continue reading I Just Really Like Movie Sountracks, Okay??

10 Christian Songs NOT Written By Mainstream Worship Artists

I used to feel guilty about not listening to worship music all the time as a Christian. I still feel guilty if I don’t feel like I’m “connecting” with God when I listen to or sing certain worship songs. I’ve come to learn that worship is a posture, not a preference.
