In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, our May lesson series is asking the questions, “What does God have to say about our mental health struggles?” Teenagers can often wonder why they struggle and how they can navigate these problems. We want them to know they’re not alone and equip them with a biblical and theological understanding of our physical, emotional, and spiritual struggles. Remember, we’re not mental health professionals, but God does care about our mental health, and we should too. This series will help us to begin or continue these very important conversations with our students.

DISCLAIMER: We are not trained psychiatrists or doctors. If you are experiencing deep dark thoughts of harming yourself, others, or just sense something is off, please reach out to a trusted adult/leader and talk asap.

 We believe Jesus is our chief healer and can bring deep healing to our hearts and situations that others can’t. But we also believe God has gifted us with wise people like doctors and counselors who can further assist our journey of healing.
