“My hope is that we in the church can understand wounds of the soul well enough that we move beyond the stigma we have associated with ‘mental’ illness.”

“The Mayo Clinic uses terms like ‘conditions,’ ‘disorders,’ and ‘concerns’ to explain the meaning of ‘mental illness.’ What I find so helpful about the definition they offer is the recognition that concerns ‘become’ illness when the suffering associated with them reaches a certain level of impact on a person’s life.” - Christianity Today

There is one who speaks rashly like the thrusts of a sword,
But the tongue of the wise brings healing.
