The main idea is that mental health can greatly impact our relationships and daily activities, but with faith in God, we can overcome and find wholeness.
1 Kings 19:1-13, Ecclesiastes 4:9-10, Psalm 23
Have you personally struggled with mental health or know someone who has? How did it affect your relationships?
In the story of Elijah, he went from a great victory to a low point of fear and isolation. Have you experienced a similar rollercoaster in your faith journey?
What steps can we take to find our people, place, and purpose in the presence of God, as Pastor Clayton mentioned in his message?
Pastor Clayton Small from The Ark Church Magnolia delivers a warm and conversational message on overcoming mental health. He shares a personal story of how a physical injury in junior high impacted his daily life and relationships. He then goes on to discuss the challenges of mental health in marriages and how it often goes unseen until it affects those closest to us.
If you personally struggle with mental health, seek help and support from a counselor or trusted pastor. Identify any past traumas or learned patterns of behavior that may be impacting your relationships.
If you know someone who struggles with mental health, show empathy and try to understand their struggles. Offer support and love to help them through their journey.
