In a simple yet careful way, John Toews with Eleanor Loewen draw on their expertise in mental health to address such topics as the interrelatedness of social, emotional, physical, and spiritual selves; emotions that hurt or heal; depression; addictions; schizophrenia; grief; and suicide. Just as we walk with persons who are physically ill, so we must learn to walk with those suffering mental illness. Destined to become a significant resource for individual Christians and congregations, this book encourages the faith community to understand and support individuals and families affected by mental health problems.
John E. Toews of Fresno, California, served on the faculty of Mennonite Brethren Biblical Seminary in Fresno, California, (1980-93) and as president of Conrad Grebel University College in Waterloo, Ontario (1996-2002).
