Faith+Lead is pleased to share a free resource for our community: God and Mental Health Challenges, a self-paced course available at no cost through November 28, thanks to the generosity of a donor passionate about mental health in church communities.

This timely course addresses the mental health crisis facing our faith communities, offering guidance on viewing mental health through a theological lens, providing care to others, and recognizing God’s presence in life’s most challenging moments.

What You’ll Learn:

• How to think theologically about mental health, nurturing hope and recognizing the image of God in everyone.
