One of my favorite recent CT pieces: A missionary doctor in Burundi finds himself in a real-life Good Samaritan situation yet struggles with the complications of helping.

Profoundly honest and a good read.

When we consider how generous to be, thrift works against the good. But when we plan for generosity, thrift works for the good.

This is a really great book by Susan Mettes, published by @BrazosPress. She examines current research on loneliness, and helpfully discusses how the church can help. The Appendix on “What the Bible Says about Loneliness” is worth the price of the book. Must read for clergy!

Did you know this week is
‘Mental Health’ Awareness Week? with the theme ‘Loneliness’.

One in four people feel lonely, but the longer we feel lonely the more we are at risk of mental health problems!

⚽️ Together WE are stronger ⚽️

I want to highlight a meta-analysis (2020) by @suicideresearch @jonathanjevans and I.
#Loneliness was significantly associated w/ depression and later self harm.
This illustrates the importance of #loneliness this #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek

"Loneliness is something to be understood and, if possible, transformed into belonging." #TheLonelinessEpidemic is an excellent resource to help churches and leaders, thanks to @susanmettes @BrazosPress https://t.co/7WmLzmepTq

"By the door. I turned the heat up, although I knew
You’d been up to turn it down –
Was it just something to do, one of the ways
You made your own thin current?"
