Physician and professor Christopher Kolker MD blends medical science and biblical truth to address the root causes of anxiety and depression.
NEW YORK CITY, NY, UNITED STATES, February 27, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — As anxiety and depression continue to affect millions of individuals and families, Dr. Christopher Kolker presents a faith grounded, medically informed approach in his new book, Christian Medicine and Anxiety: The Etiology and Treatment of Anxiety for All Who Proclaim Jesus Christ as Their Savior. Drawing from years of clinical practice and academic experience, Dr. Kolker offers readers a comprehensive roadmap that integrates biological insight with spiritual transformation.
Unlike many mental health resources that focus primarily on symptom management, Christian Medicine and Anxiety examines the deeper roots of emotional distress. Dr. Kolker explains how anxiety impacts not only the mind, but also the body, relationships, and spiritual well being. He emphasizes that lasting healing requires attention to all dimensions of the human person, including biological, psychological, relational, and spiritual factors.
Through compassionate patient stories and clear medical explanations, the book explores what occurs in the brain and body during anxious states. Dr. Kolker discusses how trauma, both recognized and hidden, can perpetuate cycles of fear and emotional instability. He carefully addresses the role of medication, acknowledging its value for some individuals while underscoring that it is not, in itself, a complete solution. Instead, he encourages a balanced approach that thoughtfully integrates medical treatment with Christ centered renewal.
Central to the book is the conviction that anxiety, while painful, can become a catalyst for growth. Dr. Kolker outlines practical strategies for retraining the mind and calming the body, including prayer, spiritual disciplines, lifestyle adjustments, and intentional thought renewal. He introduces the four virtues and four pillars of Christian living, faith, hope, love, and life, as anchors that steady believers against despair and fear.
Dr. Kolker was inspired to write this book after witnessing firsthand how many faithful Christians struggled to reconcile medical treatment with spiritual trust. He seeks to bridge that gap by affirming both the wisdom of science and the authority of Scripture. His message is clear. True healing begins not with denial of suffering, but with surrender to Jesus Christ and the renewal of the whole person.
Christian Medicine and Anxiety is written for believers facing chronic worry, depression, or the lingering effects of trauma. It also serves pastors, counselors, and healthcare professionals seeking a biblically grounded framework for understanding mental health. With clarity and conviction, Dr. Kolker reminds readers that faith does not ignore anxiety. It transforms it.
