The Well Church Edmond

Mental illnesses are some of the most common health conditions in the United States, and many faithful Christians struggle to be mentally healthy amidst the challenges of life. Instead of being a safe and healing place for struggling believers, the Church has often bypassed mental illness or shamed people for being unwell. How can the Church come alongside those who are struggling with mental illness? Thankfully, our scripture shows us time and time again that even faithful believers struggle with mental anguish. To support those with mental illness, we normalize , believe people, extend grace, act as a comforting presence, and point people to the right resources. We have a God who wants to heal us and make us well. Amen.
