Gary Steel attends the Riverwood church or ecclesia in Sydney and has recently published a 4 talk series on Christadelphian Video entitled:

How The Bible Can Help With Mental Health

Gary discusses his background as a believer and along with his graduate diploma in counselling he has been involved in professional development programs over many years. This interest in personal development and mental health is viewed through a scriptural lens with a view to helping people think about God and the Lord Jesus Christ in their lives.

In this conversation we discuss mental health and the Bible and explore the potential of the Bible to improve mental well-being, the concept of humility, and the distinction between poor mental health and mental illness.

Jeremy Thomas lives in the UK in Birmingham and is a member of the Christadelphian Church or ecclesia that meets at Walsall.

Jeremy is currently the assistant editor of the Christadelphian Magazine. Prior to the current role, Jeremy was the publishing editor of Testimony magazine.

Recently Jeremy has written a book that is published by the Christadelphian Magazine entitled At The Citadel In Susa.

The book cover summary reads:

The Medo-Persian Empire has left practically no written records of its own history. This surprising fact highlights the importance of two sources of information: the archaeology of Ancient Iran, and the Hebrew Bible.

Concentrating on some of the Old Testament characters of this period, and visiting some of the very places they knew, Jeremy Thomas considers the evidence for the truth of the Bible’s account. He combines a lifelong interest in the Medo-Persian Empire with information gleaned from two trips to Iran, to show that the Old Testament is a reliable record of this important period of history.

Author Jeremy Thomas. Soft cover 182 pages. Published by the Christadelphian, July 2024.
