Part 1 of 2.
We sat down with Charlie Meo, pastor at Missio Dei: Tempe, and discussed mental health in regards to community, the Church, and spiritual formation. This was such a great conversation that we had to split it into two episodes.
In this first part, we discuss the importance of healing within and for a community, and how personal healing is meant to contribute to the love of neighbor.
Processing thoughts and emotions is one aspect of mental health. But then what? How do you not only internalize what is coming in, but also express and get it out?
For this episode we sat down with Noel D'Avy, a practicing counselor licensed in art therapy. We discuss healthy forms of expression and how God has created us to be present.
Four letter words. Edward Scissorhands. Therapists. We have all of that and more in this episode kicking off season 2.
In this season, we take a closer look at our mental health. How is it affected during a pandemic, why is it important to be aware of our mental health, why is it such a stigma to talk about, and how can we take better care of it. In this intro episode to season 2, we are joined by guest and family therapist, Crystal Krueger.
For Phoenix, AZ we’re beginning to ask the question: do we continue to stay home or is it time to start back up? This question is already starting to cause division and, for some reason, that division seems to be built around political agendas. How can followers of Christ hold onto a unity in the Spirit for the sake of our city, even when we come to diverse decisions in how to respond to this issue?
Work has changed for many of us during this pandemic. How does your calling as a follower of Jesus influence the way you enter into this new season of work. Do you have a vocation that remains steady even in the shifting of your occupation? Hear from a few people whose jobs have been affected during these times.
In this pandemic, a global scarcity mentality set in quickly. How can followers of Jesus not give into a scarcity mindset, but rather display trust in the God of abundance and share it with others?
God’s people are blessed to be a blessing.
His goodness in our lives brings us to gratitude, which should then cause groaning for those experiencing brokenness, leading us to give of ourselves to them, bringing glory to God who gave to us.
