Easter 2023 | Stay Human

Lent is a season of preparation for Easter, and our all-church study this Lent is based on the book “Do I Stay Christian? A Guide for the Doubters, The Disappointed, and The Disillusioned” by Brian McLaren.

In a time of doubt and deconstruction, “Do I Stay Christian?” publicly addresses the question that surprising numbers of people are asking in private.

Brian McLaren does not urge Christians to dig in their heels nor does he warn them to run for the exit. Instead, he combines his own experience with that of thousands of people who have confided in him over the years to help readers make a responsible, honest, ethical decision about their religious identity.

Peace of Mind | Beating Burnout

The relationship between faith and mental health has often been strained at best. So many have sought Christian counseling only to hear, “Just pray about it.” Others have been told that a serious mental illness like depression is just a “lack of faith.” While these answers may come from well-meaning people, they ignore evidence-based mental health treatment.

While the Bible never uses the phrase like “mental health,” verses abound that speak of the soul (from where we derive our word “psyche” in biblical Greek), the spirit, peace, healing, order, a person being restored, etc. The people of the Bible experienced just life as we do, with all of our human hurts and struggles.

In the anxious times in which we live, you will benefit from a greater understanding of our mind, soul, body, and spirit and how our faith can partner with mental health science to help you live life to the fullest. Drawing from both our faith and evidence-based, science-backed clinical resources, Peace of Mind: Faith and Mental Health will help you to integrate your faith as you journey toward wellness.
