Ep. 15 - Rhonda Wiersma - Mental Health

Rhonda Wiersma joins us for some real talk about the important topic of mental health as we enter this holiday season. We spoke about the attitudes and stigma related to mental health both within and outside the church. We tried to understand how Biblical and Christian counseling differ in their approaches and how we can get involved as counsellors to those struggling in our own lives. Here are a couple references Rhonda made in this episode: Untangling Emotions: "God's Gift of Emotions" by J. Alasdair Groves & Winston T. Smith - https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B07JDDSX8N/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1 YouTube - It's Not About The Nail - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-4EDhdAHrOg One quick note - we’re starting to get a substantial audience with a couple thousand of you tuning into each of our interview episodes.
