You’re invited to join us as our church explores the intersection of faith and mental health. The Sanctuary Course was created to equip churches as they seek to become sanctuaries where individuals with mental health challenges feel safe, supported, and a sense of belonging. This eight-week study explores key mental health topics, drawing upon the insights of mental health professionals, church leaders, and people with lived experience.
The Sanctuary Course is for anyone who wants to learn more about faith and mental health, including:
- People with questions about mental health
- Mental health professionals with a wealth of knowledge to share
- Leaders who want to engage their community in mental health conversations
- People supporting loved ones with mental health challenges
- People living with mental health challenges
The Sanctuary Course will meet Wednesday nights at 7:00 PM from April 10 through May 29. The course will be facilitated by Pastors Will & Teanna, and we’ll be joined by Kathy Heustess, pastoral counselor and director of the Holston Conference Center for Wellbeing. The course requires no previous training or expertise—just a willingness to engage in dialogue with other believers.
