CAPTIVE - Toxic

View fullsize

It can be easy to accumulate and develop unhelpful or toxic thinking patterns and very difficult to get rid of them. 

God designed us to be peaceful, joy filled and empowered people. The Bible is full of commands, encouragements and advice about being ‘transformed by the renewing of the mind’.

In this talk, the final one of our series looking at mental health from a Christian perspective, Richard Pollard looks at what God says about renewing our mind.

CAPTIVE - When anxiety attacks

View fullsize

Anxiety is the most common mental health issue of our age. It dominates many people’s lives, robbing them of joy and peace.

For Christians, anxiety seems to be a long way from Jesus teaching us to live ‘life in all its fulness’ (John 10:10).

Fear is a normal emotion and we need to learn to respond to it with skill and faith. In this talk, Tom Carter looks at three practical ways we can do this in daily life.

CAPTIVE - Had Enough?

Had Enough?

The last two years have challenged hope for many people. One result of this has been an increase in poor mental health, with many people suffering anxiety and depression.

Mental health has carried huge stigma over the years, but Christians are not immune from poor mental health any more than poor physical health. But God, through the Bible, offers help and hope!

In this three week series, we’re looking at what the Bible says about these issues.

Clare Thompson begins the series by looking at the story of Elijah in 1 Kings.

What can we learn from Elijah’s struggles and from God’s response?
