Throughout scripture, we see faithful people experiencing the full spectrum of human emotion:

David’s despair,
Elijah’s exhaustion,
Hannah’s grief,
Job’s suffering.

Meanwhile, the latest studies show nearly 1 in 4 American adults experience mental illness and nearly half will meet criteria for a diagnosable condition in their lifetime.

For anyone navigating mental health challenges: your struggles don’t diminish your faith or place in God’s family. Often, your journey brings unique insights we all need.

 For everyone: healing happens in community where we understand mental health in its complexity—biological,
emotional, relational, and spiritual.

Join us as we move from silence (and even stigma) to a place of support, where both struggle and hope are held together in Christ.
