This episode is a reading from a resource by Axis ministries called "A Parents Guide to Depression & Anxiety". You can read the PDF by clicking HERE.
Discussion Questions:
- Have you or has anyone you know ever struggled with depression? Anxiety? What did you or they do to deal with it?
- How do your friends talk about mental health issues? Do you have
someone besides me that you can talk to if you’re struggling? - How do you feel when talking about mental health?
- Do you wish our church/pastors talked about mental health more or
differently? If so, how and why? - What can I do differently to show you that I care about your mental
health and do not think less of you if you struggle? - What does the Bible say about dealing with sorrows and worries? How
can that help us when we’re in the midst of depression or anxiety? - Has anyone ever given you unhelpful advice for dealing with mental
health? Why did you find it unhelpful? What would be better? - How can you and I be more aware of other people’s mental and
emotional struggles? How can we help them mentally, physically, and
spiritually?
