Lindsay Clancy Trial Raises Questions About Mental Health and Christian Counseling

Ed Vitagliano, Fred Jackson, Steve Jordahl, and George Barna discuss the Lindsay Clancy trial and the questions it has raised about postpartum psychosis, severe mental illness, criminal responsibility, and the limits of medication alone. The panel features comments from Dr. Tim Clinton of the American Association of Christian Counselors, who argues that churches should be part of serious mental health conversations because Christ offers hope that medicine cannot provide by itself. The hosts also respond to a California special education teacher suspended after a social media post about starting a “black militia,” using the story to discuss rage-baiting, responsibility, consequences, parental discipline, and biblical instruction for children.
