If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, anxious, or discouraged about the future, this conversation is for you. In this episode, Pastor Ken sits down with registered psychologist Joel Pukalo to talk about mental health. They explore common myths surrounding mental health in church circles, highlight the importance of community support, and remind us that God truly can turn every struggle into something good. Join us as we explore how God works through both prayer and professional help to bring hope and healing.

What You’ll Hear About:

1. Understanding mental health from a biblical perspective
2. Debunking the myth that “faith alone” or “therapy alone” can solve everything
3. Why community (the local church, friends, mentors) is critical on the journey
4. How to recognize cues that it’s time to seek professional help
5. Encouragement for anyone feeling hopeless or stuck

“Come to me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” – Matthew 11:28
