Be Not Anxious 5: Learning a New Story

Posted by Jason Locke on Sunday, February 3rd, 2019 in Jason Locke

Our lives are shaped by grand narratives. While postmodernism has shed some of the most obvious narratives (perhaps for good reason), strong narratives still control the way people see and experience reality — and those stories are often going unchallenged today. In this continuing series on faith & mental illness, Jason Locke talks about how depression and anxiety can help us be receptive to the grand narrative of God’s abundant provision. The message begins at the 6:10 mark.

Be Not Anxious 4: The Need for Connectedness

Posted by Jason Locke on Sunday, January 27th, 2019 in Jason Locke

In this continuing series on Faith & Mental Health, Jason Locke talks about one of the most important tools for dealing with anxiety. In Romans 12, Paul warns against the world’s power to conform you to itself. Instead, you must seek transformative tools to renew your mind as you grow in your Christian walk.

Be Not Anxious 3: The Psychology of Depression

Posted by Jason Locke on Sunday, January 20th, 2019 in Jason Locke

If God has made humans “in his image” and “fearfully & wonderfully,” then why do we struggle with various weaknesses? Why do none of us seem to measure up to the “ideal” — or at least not for long? In this message, Jason Locke talks about a Christo-centric view of depression.

Be Not Anxious 2: A Theology of Mental Illness

Posted by Jason Locke on Sunday, January 13th, 2019 in Jason Locke

Words of faith that give comfort in one setting can be unhelpful in others. In order to appropriately welcome those dealing with mental illness, we must step back from our standard words of encouragement. Jason Locke walks through important points about mental health. He then lays out three theological truths helpful for Christians who wish to walk alongside those dealing with depression, anxiety and other diseases of the mind. (Note: The actual sermon starts at 12:56. The earlier section includes a testimonial from Brian MacDougall.)
