A common thread through many of the stories we share is our guests’ experiences of being told that their anxiety or other mental health struggles are a faith issue, not a mental one.
I'm not sure if I'm allowed to have favourites but if I did, this episode would have to be it. Thank you for sharing your story with us, Lara! You've opened up a really important conversation and I truly hope we start to see more Christians understanding mental illness as so much more than a "sin issue". Faith and "secular" psychology CAN be intertwined, and often are, beautifully. I'm so thankful you've shed a light on this — well worth the listen.
