Grace has been a Christian for as long as she can remember. When she was younger, she volunteered for Bible School, summer camps, and community events. Now that she is older and working full-time, she has less time to dedicate to church. This makes Grace feel guilty and she is struggling to find a way to connect with God again.
In addition to her spiritual struggles, Maggie is having a hard time with her overall mental health. Her job is time-intensive and she can’t seem to make enough time for her family. As a newer mom, she feels guilty and constantly calls herself a bad parent. Not only does she want to improve her spiritual life, but her personal life as well.
In Grace’s situation, she could greatly benefit from working with a Christian therapist or counselor. They are dedicated, compassionate mental health professionals who practice with Jesus Christ and God in mind.
