  • Mental Health

What comes to mind when you hear the words “mental health”? Is it fear, worry, anxiety, or depression? Maybe it’s confusion, shame, guilt, or a sense of being overwhelmed and stressed out. The world has cast a negative light on mental health and made us believe it’s only something to talk about when we struggle or need help. But what if mental health was a good thing? Just like physical health or spiritual health, what if mental health was something we were supposed to work on, exercise, and take care of daily? Through this experience, we’ll explore the broken thoughts and beliefs that lead to mental health struggles and learn how to change our thinking so that we can change our lives. We’ll discover that God has given us everything we need to walk in freedom and practice a lifestyle of mental health.

    Session 12 - Now What?

    Mental health is a journey. Just like our physical health, it’s something we have to practice, exercise, and work on. Day by day, little by little, as we partner with God and use the tools He’s provided, we can experience a lifestyle of mental health. In this session, we’ll discover that where the Holy Spirit is, there is freedom. He wants to come and be our guide, counselor, and comforter. He wants to empower us to live a life of victory. God is good, Jesus has forgiven you, you are loved, and everything is possible – which means in Jesus, mental health is possible for you.

    Session 11 - Do Something Fun

    When was the last time you just had fun? When was the last time you sang out loud or laughed so hard your stomach hurt? The Bible tells us that a cheerful heart is good medicine – that the kingdom of God belongs to children. And what do children do? They play, have fun, and enjoy life! In this session, we learn that having fun is an essential part of our mental health journey. Sometimes, the greatest thing we can do for our stress or anxiety is just put the phone down, go outside, and enjoy the world God created.

    Session 10 - Serve Someone

    The Bible says those who refresh others will themselves be refreshed. You see, it’s not always about you or your struggle. You don’t have to wait to be perfect before living out your purpose. One of the reasons Jesus lived mentally free is because He never lost sight of His purpose to serve others. In this session, we discover that one of the greatest things we can do for mental health is to choose to get outside of ourselves and serve someone.

    Session 9 - Gratitude

    The Bible teaches that when we don’t give thanks, it darkens our mind and confuses our thoughts; we literally can’t see things for what they truly are. Yet when we present our requests to God by prayer, petition, and with thanksgiving, it says the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard our hearts and minds in Jesus. In this session, we learn that prayer and gratitude are an essential part of God’s solution to dealing with mental health challenges. When we choose to thank God for who He is and what He’s doing, our gratitude becomes a weapon that enables us to walk in victory over our circumstances and struggles.

    Session 8 - Find A Friend

    When we struggle with our thoughts and emotions, we tend to withdraw and pull away. But God created us for relationship. He has given us friends who will ultimately become godly relationships who encourage us and remind us that we’re not alone and that we’re going to be okay. In this session, we’ll discover that when we walk with the wise, we will become wise and have the healthy, life-giving thoughts of God.

    Session 7 - Playlists

    Playlists are powerful. The voice of the world wants to steal, kill, and destroy, but the voice of God wants to give you hope and a future. So, what playlist or voice are you choosing to listen to? The voice of the world or the voice of God? In this session, we discover that when we choose to listen to the voice of God instead of the playlists of the world, He will lead us in love, and we’ll experience true mental health.

    Session 6 - Remove, Release, Replace

    Your mind processes more than 12,000 thoughts per day, the majority of which are negative. How you think determines how you live, and it’s impossible to have a healthy life with an unhealthy mind. In this session, we discover that if we want to change the way we live, it starts by changing the way we think. Part of mental health is choosing to renew our mind, and we do that by removing and releasing the lies we believe and replacing them with God’s truth.

    Session 5 - Labels

    Our friends label us. Social media labels us. Other generations label us. And, the world tries to label us, but only Jesus has the authority to say who we are. When the world wants to define us by our struggle, God says, “you are not your anxiety, and you are not your depression; you are my beloved son or daughter." In this session, we’ll discover that we can live a life of mental health by knowing who we are in Jesus.

    Session 4 - Love vs. Fear

    Do you ever wonder why you do what you do or think what you think? The truth is your behaviors are a direct result of your beliefs. Whatever beliefs you’re rooted in show up in your life and impact your mental health. In this session, we discover that lasting freedom comes when we’re able to look beyond what we can see with our eyes and look deeper into what is alive and growing in the root systems of love or fear in our heart.

    Session 3 - The Gospel

    The Gospel is simply the good news that Jesus came, He is love, and He wants to give you back the life you were created for. He wants you to walk in the fullness of His finished work and enjoy true mental health. In this session, we discover that only Jesus can lead us to a life of true mental health. He comes into our life and asks the question, “Do you want to get well – do you actually want to get well?” And if we do, then only He can set us free.

    Session 2 - Misconceptions

    What you’re facing is real, and it matters to God. When dealing with mental health challenges, it’s important to remember that you’re not alone and that your struggles are not the end of your story. The enemy wants you to feel powerless. That it’s always going to be this way. God wants you to know that He sees you, He hears you, He is concerned about you, and He has come to set you free. In this session, we’ll remove common misconceptions surrounding mental health and learn to brush our mind of the toxic thoughts that cause us to struggle.

    Session 1 - Getting Started

    Everywhere we go, people are talking about mental health. But what if we’ve gotten the conversation wrong? What if “mental health” is actually a positive thing God designed us to experience? What if true mental health is believing that you are who God says you are, that God is who He says He is, and that you were created for a purpose? We were created to live free, and God has given us the tools to help us on that journey. In this session, you’ll discover that God has not given you a spirit of fear but of power, love, and a sound mind.
