Description
Is it possible to develop such a thing as a biblical theology of mental health? How might we develop a helpful and pastoral use of scripture to explore questions of mental health within a Christian framework?

Chapters include:
Paula Gooder on Healing and wholeness

With a foreword from Archbishop Justin Welby
