Preston Crowe - The Pandemic of Suicide
Why has there been such a spike in suicide in the past 5-10 years? 9 percent of all students in grades 9-12 have attempted suicide in the past twelve months (The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention). Adolescents are bombarded daily by a world telling them WHO they should be and how to project the right IMAGE. Preston Crowe, a counselor and minister, helps us examine the crisis of suicide as well as depression and anxiety. How should we as Christians respond?
"The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." Psalms 34:18 NIV
"We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed." 2 Corinthians 4:8-9 NIV
