Have you ever had someone tell you in your darkest moment, "Just Pray About It?" That response is so corny and aggravating especially when you TRULY need help. In this episode we tackle the HOT TOPIC, Mental Health in the Church. Does the two go together? Can a person love God and have a therapist? Does going to therapy mean you are crazy? If I am sad or depressed does that mean I don't have faith? Don't worry, you will not have to wonder about these questions any longer. We will address them all and some more with my Champion Guest, First Lady (Elder) Frances Futrell, LPC.  Tune in now and remember to tell a friend.
