Episode 40: Mental health, American Christian college and SPORTS

What's it really like at an American Christian college? We speak to Emily about her experience studying and pushing herself as an athlete at Jerry Falwell Jr's Liberty University, and the effect of Christian college, church and sporting culture on mental health. We share what works for us in terms of mental health and well being, discuss whether God wants us to focus on self-care, and the unhelpful and helpful things Christians can do when deal with mental health issues. Also: our first listener voice-note! And preparing for advertisers.  You're gonna love it.  Emily's PR and full service digital agency is called ECW Solutions. You should hire her! Her latest project is promoting a new album by Gregory David Roberts called Love & Faith.

It's this: Jesus Christ is the Son of God and came to teach us a better way to be while reconciling us to God and each other in a way we could never do without Him. He also changed water into wine. Nice.
