One in four U.S. Americans annually experiences mental health issues ranging in severity from temporary psychological distress to serious depression, schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, yet less than one-third of these persons receives appropriate care, often because of the stigma associated with these illnesses and their treatments. This issue of The Christian Citizen, published by American Baptist Home Mission Societies, tells stories and provides insights for ministering with people with mental illnesses. The entire issue is available for free online.
In this issue:
Disability Concerns
Disability Concerns, Intergenerational Ministry
Disability Concerns, General Worship
