Troubled Minds: Responding to Mental Illness: 6 Session Bible Study: Discover how the church can—and must—help those who are struggling.
Mental illness if far more prevalent than many realize. With one in four adults struggling with mental illness each year, there's no doubt that there are people in our churches that desperately need love and support. Unfortunately, the church hasn't always done a great job of ministering to those affected by mental illness—either their own or a loved one's illness. But it doesn't have to be that way. This Bible study will explore mental illness and what the church can do to help. It will also help clear up common myths and begin to put the stigma of mental illness in the past.
