## Resource

Is mental illness a spiritual failure? Why do so many Christians struggle in silence with depression and anxiety? In this special studio interview, John Giftah sits down with clinical psychologist Rini Jacob (Host of The Hope Frequency Podcast) to tear down the taboo surrounding mental health in the church. Together, they explore the intersection of psychology and scripture, the neuroscience of depression, and why seeking therapy is an act of spiritual courage, not a lack of faith. In this episode, you will learn: ✅ The biological reality of mental illness (It's not just "in your head") ✅ Why biblical heroes like Elijah and David struggled with their minds ✅ Practical tools for emotional regulation and self-compassion ✅ How the Church and mental health professionals can work together Connect with Rini Jacob: The Hope Frequency Podcast - https://www.youtube.com/@TheHopeFrequencyPodcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_hope_frequency_podcast?igsh=anAzNjM5MzZrNG42 Email: thehopefrequency222@gmail.com Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/fuel-for-the-soul-with-john-giftah-biblical-teaching-faith-podcast--4939473/support .
