Poema S4 011 | Chris Morris on Whispers In The Pews

Published: Nov. 14, 2018, 5:36 a.m.

b'Chris Morris returns to the show today to talk about the new book, "Whispers In The Pews: Voices on Mental Illness In The Church", a collection of true stories from 18 Christians with mental illness, sharing their experiences of mental illness in the church, which he compiled and edited.\\xa0\\nChris and I talk about his own experiences of mental illness and good and bad experiences of this within the church. We discuss what the church has done badly with mental illness, and how it can do better. Chris also shares how all of us - even those with mental illness - always have more to learn about mental illness, and the importance of hearing and validating each others stories, and ending stigma, especially within the church.\\xa0\\nChris has so much wisdom and experience surrounding both mental illness, chronic illness and faith, and this was a really inspiring conversation.\\xa0\\nYou can get "Whispers In The Pews" (which includes a contribution by yours truly) on Amazon now.'
