Focused on Christ - A podcast by Focused on Christ - Tuesdays

Dive into the intersection of faith and mental health with our latest video, where we tackle the challenging topic of mental illness from a Christian perspective. We address the controversial views of Pastor John MacArthur on mental health conditions and the importance of a holistic approach to treatment. This video explores the theological concept of sin as the root of brokenness, the careful use of medication alongside counseling, and the vital role of the church in supporting those with mental health struggles. Discover how to approach anxiety with faith, show compassion to those in need, and trust in God's sovereignty.
