If you did not know, we have a whole YouTube channel that we have quietly been playing around with as well as using for several of our national and international Christian mental health conferences we have been playing around with. Would you give us two seconds and go subscribe? For those who do, you’ll get to see videos on there before they go live on our website.

The conversation about stigma with mental health in the Church is not a new one. So we take a few minutes to talk about an important question. Why are Christians so adverse to talking about mental health? We’d love to hear your thoughts about this in the comments below or on the YouTube page.
