What Canadian Church Leaders Should Know about Mental Health & Illness in their Congregation

Join Joel Thiessen, Professor of Sociology at Ambrose University and Flourishing Congregations Institute Director, for an interactive half-hour webinar – 15-minute research presentation & 15-minute Q/A (optional 15-minutes after for networking) – based on recent findings from a national survey with nearly 1,000 church leaders and congregants on the topic of mental health and illness in Canadian Christian congregations.

Learn of where and how this subject is increasingly normalized in some congregations, though stigma remains for some, along with how congregations are responding and might strengthen their engagement moving forward with those who experience mental illness or challenges.
