How should Christians think about mental health?
In this episode, Abigail DeJarnatt takes a biblical and practical look at one of the most misunderstood topics in Christian culture. She unpacks how the modern conversation around mental health has been distorted—yet why it’s still a real issue believers must address with grace and truth.
From Scripture to personal experience, Abigail walks through what it means to take every thought captive, how to discern between spiritual and physical struggles, and what it looks like to pursue peace through Christ.
“For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds… and take every thought captive to obey Christ.” — 2 Corinthians 10:4–5 (ESV)
