Misunderstandings of Mental Health and How to Help Those Suffering - Matthew Stanford Thursday, December 19, 2024

A lot of people get the lines between spiritual problems and mental problems confused, but one thing is clear: the church has historically been a safe and helpful place for people suffering and seeking shelter and support. Matthew Stanford is the CEO of the Hope and Healing Center and Institute in Texas. He shares about the misunderstanding surrounding mental health problems with Christians and children. He also praises the church for being on the front lines of mental health support. Matthew points out hallmarks of depression in children and how the church can come alongside families during difficult times of diagnosis and mental health struggles. We as parents can also teach our children how to deal with stress and tension in our everyday lives in a healthy manner.
