De: Erica Peninger

Narrado por: Trillian Skinner

So you've noticed traits or habits in your acquaintance that make it hard to deal with them. Clearly, some issues lie beneath the surface. The truth is, you don't need to know what disorder they have in order to help the situation.

This audiobook helps its listeners to consider a Christian view on mental illness, healing, and the role of a mindful Christian in the lives of those who are difficult around them.

Amazing

Great resource. This audiobook mentions important concepts such s narcissism, addiction and trauma disorders that prevent you to be your true self. I recommend this audiobook to any person who has been going through theses situations. Amazing narration by the way!

A Faith Based Perspective of Modern Mental Health

Mental Illness & Christianity brings the dialogue of God into contemporary issues and ideas of mental illness, offering these complex and difficult to understand concepts through a Christian lense. I appreciated the positioning of "faith" as a foundational salve for much of the issues as discussed today, as often a connection to spirit can help relieve mental and emotional imbalances, including addiction. Would recommend to anyone trying to figure out how these new concepts and concerns fit into a Christian perspective, and are wanting to navigate this territory.

Interesting book

This is an interesting book about mental illness and Christianity. It is told from the viewpoint of Christianity. Even though it isn’t always widely discussed, mental illness is present throughout the world. This includes people involved with Christianity. Mental illness affects people from all walks of life. This is a great resource for anyone wanting to learn more about mental illness and Christianity.

Excellent book!

I enjoyed this book so much that I listened to it twice. It has helped me identify types of mental illness through the power of the Scripture and God. I like how the author paraphrases from the bible to make them clear and support the points being made. I particularly enjoyed the chapter on how the devil influences mental illnesses such as narcissism and additions, how people are turned away from God, and how it leads them down a destructive path.

I gained a lot of value from the teaching on how to deal with people with mental illnesses from a Christian point of view. Such as when to try and introduce them to the way of life and when to walk away and let God carry out his plan for them. For anyone Christain or those wanting to embrace God into their life, I would highly recommend listening to this book.

Very helpful !

This audiobook talks about the fact that many people's habits and troubles are often due to their own actions. In our world today, a lot of us are focused on finding happiness and pleasure for ourselves, and because of this, we sometimes make choices that aren't so good. The author is very open about her own experiences with this, which helps to make the book feel more related. Many people don't understand what's wrong with their actions because they haven't been taught any better. The author uses verses from the Bible to explain their ideas, which fits really well. This book isn't like other books; it can help you heal spiritually and understand yourself better. This is a great resource for any individuals who believe in God.

The voice of narrator was crystal clear and satisfying to hear.

Great Way To Approach Mental Illness

There are many books out there about what causes mental illness, how to handle it, how to be aware of it, etc. However, this is the first book I have read that ties mental illness to Christianity which I loved. I believe it is good to understand the science behind a disorder, but also reading the bible verses provided on the subject was a fantastic way to see disorders in a new light.

Well Written Book

I found this book to not only offer insightful guidance but to do so in a way that appeals to those whose Christianity is their base for decision-making and guidance. The author uses concepts often taught in Christianity to help emphasize not only what a healthy lifestyle can be but also how these concepts can guide one's struggles through, and eventually out of, addiction and other traumas.

helpful and easy to follow!

thank you erica for this work. I am grateful whenever there are people out there advocating for mental health and mental health awareness. coming from a family where addiction was very real, I appreciate your take on navigating through the illness.

great read!

Love found within inner peace

This was simply a beautiful listen. Although I don't actively practice Christianity, I was drawn to this book because of its gorgeous cover and decided to give it a chance. I was pleasantly surprised! I do believe that the messages found within these pages are helpful in dealing with the challenges of day to day life, from a higher power perspective and holding space for others' individuality. Spreading kindness and love, always.
