Are you or someone you love struggling with mental health? You are not alone! Past trauma, the pandemic, current trauma, and abuse are a few of the major contributors to our mental health. Even burnout and over-exertion can cause our mental health to crumble. God cares about you and your mental health. Check out this teaching series called Peace of Mind where we examine what the Bible says about our mental health. See the list of professional counselors in our list below or simply send us an email to make contact with one of our pastors.

In “Peace of Mind,” we look at how some familiar names in scripture dealt with many of the same struggles we face today. We’ll learn how they overcame those struggles not through their own strength, but by depending on God.

Part 6: As A Man Thinketh (Negative Thoughts)
