Mental health is a growing concern, and the Bible offers hope and guidance. Scripture acknowledges the challenges of the human condition but also points to God as a source of healing and peace.
• Psalm 34:18 reminds us, “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.”
• Philippians 4:6-7 encourages us to bring our anxieties to God in prayer, promising “the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
Faith doesn’t dismiss mental health struggles but provides a foundation for healing. Our church equips people to seek God’s help, practical resources, and support from the community to respond to who God created them to be.
