Mental Health and your Church : A Handbook for Biblical Care
Outline : Mental ill-health is far more common than many of us think. Statics suggest that one is six people will have experienced a mental-health struggle in the past week. That means there are many in our church families battling with thoughts, feelings, and even voices that distract, drag down, and nudge them towards despair. But when it comes to helping, we often find ourselves unsure of where to begin and afraid of making things worse by saying and doing the wrong things. This compassionate and practical book will help you understand people who are struggling and respond with biblical wisdom, and equip you to play your part in making your church a place where those who wrestle with mental-health conditions are welcomed, understood, nurtured and supported: a foretaste of the new creation.
While acknowledging the importance of liaising responsibly with medics and counsellors, this book focuses on equipping readers to play their part in making churches places where those who struggle with mental-health conditions are welcomed, understood, nurtured, and supported: a foretaste of the new creation.
