Mental Health Resources in Churches

Is this a thing? Should this be a thing? What are your thoughts? I’m wondering if churches and leaders need to be better prepared to address mental health needs of their members. Should this be referred out or service brought into the church house?

Many people view the church as a place of healing but are we comfortable with utilizing resources in the church or reaching out to spiritual leaders?

I’d love to hear your thoughts as I explore resource development and ways the bridge the gap between faith and mental health.

Leave me a comment! I look forward to reading your thoughts!
