God's Word and Mental Health

This Bible study series is based on Skip McDonald's book, God's Word and Mental Health: Strength for the Journey. It has been modified by the author to apply its principles to nursing. 

While studying the Bible through the lens of mental health, many timeless truths emerged. This Bible study focuses on Psalm 119, the longest chapter in the Bible. The psalmist takes a good look into his life-the good, the bad and the ugly. He then testifies as to how the Word of God has met him on every level. We have an opportunity to learn from him and how we can apply God's Word to our lives, specifically our nursing practice, bringing soundness and stability in daily living.
