  • 10. Faith + Therapy = Healing : A conversation with 3 therapists (Part 1)
    Did you know 1 in 4 Americans in America struggle with some kind of mental health condition and because of the negative stigma surrounding mental health matters, many don't seek to the help and treatment they need. 
    ✨
    ✨
    Did you also know that 63% of African Americans believe mental health conditions are a sign of personal weakness? And did you also know African Americans are 20% more likely to experience serious mental health problems than the general population? 
    ✨
    ✨
     It's time for us to de-stigmatize mental health matters in the faith community and show how faith and therapy TOGETHER, can strengthen our personal well-being so we can bring our best selves to those we lead, love and work with.

  • 26. She struggles to be intimate with God (Monique #7)
    Intimacy with God is not based on our feelings. It’s based on our commitment to love God and walk in obedience to His word. It’s not about euphoria or emotion. It’s about getting alone with God, removing all distractions, and focusing our heart to hear His voice, desire His desires and fulfill His dreams for our lives.
