The 2014 Christianity Today Book Award Winner (Her.meneutics)Winner of a 2013 Leadership Journal Book Award (Our Very Short List in The Leader's Outer Life category)Mental illness is the sort of thing we don't like to talk about. So instead, too often we reduce people who are mentally ill to caricatures and ghosts, and simply pretend they don't exist. It doesn't reduce nicely to simple solutions and happy outcomes.
And then there's their friends and family members, who bear their own scars and anxious thoughts, and who see no safe place to talk about the impact of mental illness on their lives and their loved ones. They do exist, however--statistics suggest that one in four people suffer from some kind of mental illness. Many of these people are sitting in churches week after week, suffering in stigmatized silence.
