Karen sits down with Gianna as we start our series on Mental Health and Our Faith. Gianna shares how God created our feelings, they are important to acknowledge and not avoid.
In this episode we talk about the struggles of depression and how our faith intersects with our mental health. Gianna shares about how our faith and God's Word is not meant to crush us with how we are failing in our struggle, but rather encourage us and speak to us in our struggle.
Dealing with depression is as real as someone dealing with a broken arm, but harder to understand as it's not something you can visually see. We need grace for ourselves and grace for others as we walk through mental health struggles, whether it's our own or coming alongside someone.
Gianna Reese is a licensed counselor with a passion for helping others. She is married to Eric Reese, Eric is now pastoring in East Heartland, Connecticut.
