“Dear God, I’m Sad” is a brand with the mission to craft a healthier and more holistic relationship between mental illness and the Church through reflection, investigation, and exploration. Listen as Gabby Wilkinson, seminary student, chemically imbalanced Christian, and creator of “Dear God, I’m Sad,” converses and shares stories with experts in the field of mental illness, faith, and the intersection of the two with hopes of diminishing the stigma of mental illness in faith spaces and promoting healthy responses to mental illness by faith leaders.
