In today's honest conversation, Lindsey Maestas talks with Pastor Paul Daugherty about his personal struggles with failure, depression, and suicidal thoughts as a Christian.
He discusses candidly the struggle that Christians often face with shame and masking emotions when it comes to genuine mental health struggles. He shares his story of attempting to take his life, how suicide is often misperceived as a selfish tendency, and the importance of community and accountability for mental health healing.
Pastor Paul shares practical and spiritual ways to work through personal mental health battles and his own story of grief, failure, and moving forward.
