About this listen

We're finally talking about mental health and addiction in faith communities. But have we really listened? For the past year, podcast host Seth Perry has looked beyond the statistics to the real stories: rural towns with no treatment options, African American communities facing rising opioid overdoses, Indigenous populations with a 10-fold disparity in statistics, and third-generation immigrant families watching their encampments disappear overnight. Meanwhile, our Muslim brothers and sisters seek recovery that honors both faith and culture. The crisis is deep, the conversations are overdue, and the time to listen is now. "Our Stigma" is a six-part podcast exploring faith, culture and recovery. It's hosted by Seth Perry, pastor of Elim Lutheran Church in Scandia, Minnesota, and himself a recovering addict living with bipolar disorder. Episodes start dropping weekly on Thursday, May 1, 2025. They will be accompanied by a study resource for small groups focused on developing grassroots mental health outreach. Subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts.
