Those who are afflicted as well as those who are adversely affected
by mental illness often live lives of "quiet desperation" without
recourse to appropriate assistance. Most caregivers confronted with
these illnesses in the work of ministry have had no training or
accurate information about mental illnesses, so frequently they do
nothing, resulting in further harm and damage. Others may operate
out of a theological system that does not adequately account for
the nature, severity, or treatment of these illnesses. In Ministry
with Persons with Mental Illness and Their Families, Second
Edition, psychiatrists and pastoral theologians come together in an
interdisciplinary, collaborative effort to ensure accuracy of
information concerning the medical dimensions of mental illness,
interpret these illnesses from a faith perspective, and make
suggestions relative to effective ministry. Readers will learn how
science and a faith tradition can not only co-exist but work in
tandem to alleviate the pain of the afflicted and affected.
