People are hurting on a scale we've never seen before. They're dealing with an onslaught of issues like anxiety, grief, mental health struggles, and family troubles. Pastors and counselors want to help, but they've become inundated and can't meet every need.
It's a crisis that's expected to only become worse.
But what if the church stepped in? What if the body of Christ could bring healing to the hurting and take a load off of the already too-busy pastor and counselor?
Well, today on the 4:13, author and social researcher Shaunti Feldhahn shares a brilliant way for everyday people of faith to care for one another. You'll learn how to come alongside the hurting with empathy and grace, how to step into opportunities without burning out, and how your church can become a place where people don't just hear about hope, but experience it.
We may not all be licensed, professional counselors, but we do have something to offer, and it's much simpler than you may think!
