HOW TO PREVENT A COVID-19 MENTAL AND EMOTIONAL BREAKDOWN

Are you exasperated?

This week, we’ve been discussing the mental, and emotional strain that is being felt, related to COVID-19. But the virus itself is only one piece of the puzzle.

– There are relational impacts as friends and loved get sick.
– There is the financial impact of lost jobs, and an uncertain future.
– There is the community impact of social distancing, and self-isolation.

The increasing pressure has shifting the conversation to ask, “How long can we live like this? Where’s the balance?”

We found a 3-step process.

WHY DO PEOPLE RISK THEIR LIVES TO SAVE OTHERS?

HOW CAN WE REALLY KNOW, THAT WE KNOW JESUS?

Believe it or not, church leaders give their lives to Jesus at Christian conferences and events every year.

It’s true! Billy Graham experienced this throughout his career. Pastors, Elders, Deacons, Ministry Leaders; coming to Christ for the first time at his revivals, after years of leading churches.

Then they had the difficult task of explaining it to their churches. Listen to one’s Deacon’s words:
