Hope + Help for Engaging Mental Disorder Diagnosis with Jenn Chen
In this episode of the Hope + Help Podcast, host Christine Chappell interviews Jenn Chen about her book, Biblical Counseling and Mental Disorder Diagnosis. Some of the questions addressed in this interview are:
• What is the difference between the terms “mental disorder” and “mental illness?”
• In what ways might a disorder diagnosis impact a sufferer’s perception of themselves and their world?
• How does identity in Christ offer hope to those who have been diagnosed with a mental disorder?
• How can we think about our “goal” and “role” as biblical counselors (or disciplers) when it comes to walking with someone who’s been diagnosed with a mental disorder?
• How does considering a person’s fallenness, finitude, fragility, and faltering empower caregivers to minister God’s Word to a sufferer’s experience in a meaningful, relevant way?
