New Wine: Mental Illness and the Church

New Wine discusses issues related to suicide, mental illnesses and how people dealing with them are treated in and by the Church. In our society mental health problems are quickly becoming one of the greatest health issues faced by the Church. In the past many in the Church have dealt with people dealing with a mental health issue with fear and ignorance. It is hoped that New Wine will help to dispel some of that fear and ignorance. New Wine begins with a brief overview of the author's own journey with suicidal thoughts and actions created by his bi-polar and discusses the issues I have dealt with in a frank and open manner. It then moves on to a discussion of the issues related to mental health facts and how it is, and should, be dealt with within the Church. While New Wine is written for a Christian audience it is appropriate for anyone seeking a better understanding of mental health issues and how to deal with them.
