This is the 13th episode of A Quick Word and it’s a milestone. We’ve been on air and podcasting for 13 weeks now. We started this journey because of a simple question: Is there a connection between my mental health and my faith in God?

This question is not new. Although, very often, there is a tendency to see them both as two separate areas, with no connection to each other. But they are interconnected, and intricately so.

A balanced emphasis on both mental and spiritual health is actually where we should be having in order to live as a healthy, complete, Christian

In this episode, Pastor Bayu shares A Quick Word about the connection between our mental and spiritual health.

There is no shame in reaching out to a mental health professional if we feel that we cannot tackle the isolation and loneliness on our own.
