The Calvin Institute of Christian Worship spoke with TMC’s Co-director Warren Kinghorn about Mental Health and Christian Worship.
“Christians with mental illness say that talking about mental illness, especially in sermons, is helpful and destigmatizing. I’d advise engaging story as much as possible in worship. Stories have a way of getting us out of analytic positions that we either agree or disagree with. Stories can remind us that we are more than minds that inhabit bodies, more than people with broken minds and broken bodies that doctors need to fix.”
