Hello, and welcome to the Resilience &amp; Other Things podcast with Chris Morris. On this podcast, Chris shares the wisdom he’s learned as a lifelong sufferer of depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideations. Together, we’ll explore how we as Christians can navigate the difficulties of life without avoiding the hard questions about God, life, and mental illness.

In this episode, I give 5 reasons why mental health matters, and why we simply must pay attention to it in our lives:




- We are created as a single human being, not a separate set of bodies, emotions, mentalities, and spirits – everything is connected.
- In today’s world, there are more stressors than ever before it seems, and to ignore them is unhealthy.
- Undiagnosed mental health disorders can lead to years of pain and frustration.
- Our faith is impacted by our mental health.
- There is an opportunity for acceptance and freedom from shame.

TW: Deep conversation about suicidal ideations!

In this episode, I talk about my first significant suicidal moment. I talk about how I prayed a desperate prayer to God, and how he answered that prayer in an unexpected way.

My First Serious Suicidal Moment

Hello, and welcome to the Resilience &amp; Other Things podcast with Chris Morris. On this podcast, Chris shares the wisdom he’s learned as a lifelong sufferer of depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideations. Together, we’ll explore how we as Christians can navigate the difficulties of life without avoiding the hard questions about God, life, and mental illness.

In this episode, I riff on Ephesians 2:10 and what it means for those of us in the mental health community who call ourselves Christians. Too often, we disqualify ourselves or feel like God disqualifies us because of our struggles, but actually the opposite is true. God calls us his masterpiece, and he says that knowing all our battles and all our scars. We are called to good works based on who we currently are, not based on some future perfected version of ourselves.
