The Clinical and the Spiritual: Navigating Mental Health in the Church (feat. Dr. Josh Wageman)

Gospel Truth Project by Jason Cooper & Dylan Dorado

Episode notes

In a culture that often swings between purely secular materialism and hyper-spiritualizing pain, how should a Christian navigate clinical depression and anxiety? In this episode of the Gospel Truth Project, Jason sits down with Dr. Josh Wageman (PhD, DPT, PA-C, CLS, CSCS) to dismantle the "false gospel of the mind."

Join us as we explore:

  • The Theology of the Body: Understanding why the physical brain matters and how the Fall (Romans 8:22) impacts neurochemistry.
  • Elijah’s Breaking Point: An exegesis of 1 Kings 19 and why God’s answer to suicidal exhaustion was rest and physical sustenance, not a rebuke.
  • The Role of Medicine: Seeing doctors, counselors, and medicine as instruments of God's common grace, rather than a lack of faith.
