132. Neuroscience, Mental Health & the Church




Language of God show

Summary: The church has had a complicated relationship with mental health. Research shows that 1 in 5 adults experience mental illness in a given year and yet 66% of pastors talk about mental health in sermons only once a year or less. In the episode we break down what exactly mental illness and mental health are, what is happening in the brain, and how the church can respond in ways that help us all to be healthier individuals and begin to build a more understanding, empathetic and healthy community.   Support BioLogos Join a conversation about this episode on the BioLogos Forum.
