Counseling expert Ed Welch spoke at the Desiring God 2012 National Conference in Minneapolis, Minn., on Saturday and explained how Christians can better minister to those who deal with various psychiatric issues.
It can be difficult to minister to those with certain mental health needs, Welch explained, although Christians should remember that everyone is “brain damaged” to a certain extent. Everyone forgets things at times, and everyone has limits to their intelligence, so Christians should be careful not to turn their backs on those who have specific mental limitations, because they too can pursue holiness.
