There is so much we don't know. We have to be honest about that. But there is a lot we do know, and it's absolutely critical we spread that information far and wide.

Introduction
For many years, the discussion of mental health has been a major societal taboo. Unfortunately, this stigma is still an issue — especially among Christians who might see having mental problems as letting down God and a proof of weak faith.
However, both attempting to pray issues away and being in denial can prevent us from getting better.
Ryan Casey Waller is a priest, therapist, lawyer, and writer who is renowned for advocating for mental health.
In this book, Waller dives into the aspects of ourselves we at times refuse to face from both a personal and biblical perspective, exploring the relationship between mental health and faith.
This in-depth guide debunks the definition of mental health, the consequences of poor mental health, and the crucial importance of self-love.
