However, many are specific for valley seasons and are helpful when you sense that your mental health has been compromised.

​This is a very useful and well thought out resource, and I trust that churches will take advantage of it to assist their congregants who are looking for peace in their lives.  This document, if used as suggested, certainly has the potential to meet its goals:  

1. Raise awareness
2. End stigma
3. Point to hope.

"A Place to Start" is a critical component of this  resource, because it can be very overwhelming to know where to begin.  This kind of support is what is needed for anyone caring for the mentally ill and their caregivers.

​The included resources, such as "The Best Movies About Mental Health", "Peace of Mind Self-Care Kit", along with the section entitled "Get Your Word", are well developed with practical applications. The step by step instructions encourage and facilitate leaders, as well as individuals, in being proactive about mental health.

This guide emphasizes the relationship between the spiritual and emotional, showing that they are not mutually exclusive, but work to complement each other.

Thank you for dedicating your time and efforts to the development of this wonderful resource from which we can all benefit.
