In this episode of Shalom Season, Jess sits down with her husband, Nick Connolly, to talk about anxiety. Especially when it shows up physically, not just mentally. Nick shares about his recent battle with anxiety, how it differed from past experiences, and what it looked like to pursue peace in the middle of it.

Together, they explore the tension between caring for your health and becoming consumed by it, the role of community and prayer, and the shift from striving to receive God’s love. This conversation is a reminder that even when your body feels overwhelmed, true biblical peace, shalom, is still possible.

We’re back! The Jess Connolly Podcast is kicking off a brand new season, and this time, you can watch along too. That’s right, the podcast is now available on video as well as audio, and we couldn’t be more excited for what’s ahead.

Welcome to Shalom Season.

In this first episode, Jess introduces the heart of the season and explores the deeper meaning of biblical peace… shalom. While the world often defines peace as comfort or the absence of conflict, the Bible describes something far richer: wholeness, restoration, and right relationship with God.

If you’ve been longing for more peace in your mind, body, relationships, or everyday life, this episode lays the foundation for the conversations ahead.

Throughout Shalom Season, we’ll explore what it looks like to experience God’s peace in our homes, marriages, motherhood, community, and more.

It’s the final episode of 2025 and the closing chapter of our Bible Babes study in James. In this episode, Jess walks through the last verses of James 5 and the invitation it offers us: to wait well, watch our words, pray in every season, live in community, and courageously love others back to life.

This episode wraps the year with encouragement, perspective, and a call to simple, steadfast, Spirit-filled faith.
