In today’s episode, co-hosts Steph and Laura discuss ways to be an effective support person to someone who may be experiencing a mental health challenge or mental illness. They share practical tips, like paying attention to tone of voice and when to give advice. They also focus on the importance of boundaries and understanding that it’s not our job to fix people’s problems. We can encourage and come alongside them-- but ultimately, everything we do needs to point to our saviour Jesus (not US!).Includes: Importance of boundaries, why preaching at someone isn’t effective, when to seek immediate help, and scriptures including John 11:33-35, Romans 12:15, John 14:16.Timeline:Resource:London Crisis Centre - great alternative to the emergency departmentAs always, you can find us on Facebook and Instagram (@brighterpodcastministry).
