Shepherd Press is pleased to announce the addition of Help! I’ve Been Diagnosed with a Mental Disorder to its growing collection of LifeLine Mini-books. Written by author Christine Chappell and produced under the editorial direction of Dr. Paul Tautges, this new resource offers stabilizing biblical truths to those who have been recently labeled with a psychiatric disorder. Through empathetic and approachable language, this mini-book explores common questions, fears, and doubts that sufferers may face as they consider what life will look like for them post-diagnosis.
In sharing her own story of being previously labeled with a mental disorder, Chappell quickly connects with readers who are walking a similar path and invites them to embrace a redemptive perspective on the experiences they’re going through. While this mini-book is only 10,000 words in length, it manages to address key foundational truths about personhood, purpose in life, and potential for God-glorifying progress on a post-diagnosis journey. By doing so, the reader is continuously invited to remember that in Christ, their truest identity is one of a child of God and that such a relationship offers realistic hope and meaningful help in the problematic moments they’re going through.
