Mental health stigma is cause for concern, but this is especially the case when it exists within faith-based communities, as it often does in Christian culture. Being directly associated with something as sacred as our shared faith, these forms of stigma produce even deeper layers of confusion and shame for those struggling with mental health. This occurs despite the fact that mental illness is just as prevalent among Christians as it is within the general population and is just as prevalent among church leaders as among any other member of a congregation. For something that is exceedingly normal, why do we as Christians so often treat it as something that makes us unfit or unworthy?
