Stop Using Faith As A Crutch For Your Mental Health!
Show Notes
This week’s episode may rub some people the wrong way but that’s okay. It’s time to set the record straight and provide another prospective. Kea talks about the story of Elijah and how he reveals signs of depression. She encourages us to stop using faith and prayer as a crutch and be an active participant in your mental health. Praying about your mental health does not mean suppressing your thoughts and emotions, and letting it turn into envy, jealously, bitterness and anger. The scripture reminds us that “faith without works is dead.”Resources/References:Suicide Will Send You To Hell Episode: https://www.buzzsprout.com/132572/631648-suicide-will-send-you-to-hell-mental-illness-suicide-the-church-featuring-pastor-alnicia-gibson-pastor-xavier-small-kiaundra-jackson Articles: Stop Using Faith As Crutch Written By Keahttp://www.firefliesunite.com/blog/stop-using-prayer-as-a-crutch-for-mental-health-it-s-getting-old Benefits Of Religion On Mental Health: NAMI Articlehttps://www.nami.org/Blogs/NAMI-Blog/December-2016/The-Mental-Health-Benefits-of-Religion-SpiritualTherapist Shout-Out: Roger’s Family Therapy (based in Sherman Oaks & Encino, California)https://rogersfamilytherapy.com/ Mind, Body & Soulness Segment: Staying Sane In An Insane World: A Prescription For Even Better Mental Health By Kiaundra Jackson, LMFThttps://www.amazon.com/Staying-Sane-Insane-World-Prescription/dp/0999208136 Kiaundra’s Website & Social Media: www.kwcouplestherapy.com Instagram & Twitter: @KiaundraJackson
