Tools for Those in Need of Mental Health Support

An Interview with Joe Padilla

Few things are more acutely examined than the human body. Of all its organs, the brain is the most complex. No other organ controls human functioning like the brain. However, what makes the brain totally unique is its connection to our overall well-being.

The brain affects how we function physically, emotionally, relationally, personally, and also spiritually.

For this reason, we must address this massive disconnect. Few people do this better than my friend, Joe Padilla. After years in ministry, Joe and his lovely wife endured years of complicated mental health challenges.

Through the process, Joe learned the undeniable value of wellness integration. He founded the Mental Health Grace Alliance. No one should suffer alone regardless the cause of their suffering.

You will come away from this interview with practical tools providing help and hope to all who may struggle. Don’t miss this outstanding, revisited interview!

Let Me Hear from You

Throughout Scripture, the physical body is used to reveal truths about the spiritual body . . . the church. References to the eyes, ears, tongue, hands, legs, and more are found in the Old and New Testaments. First Corinthians 12 contains a comprehensive comparison of the physical and spiritual body.

It is the Christian’s calling to function as ONE unit. No one is more or less important; all are vital, necessary, and valuable. When one part of our physical body is hurting, it’s felt throughout the entire body.

It’s time we address and integrate this truth into the body of Christ. Isn’t it time we offer hope to those in need of mental health support? What can you do TODAY that will make a difference in another’s life?
