-HELPING THE HELPER SERIES-
A Biblical Perspective on Psychiatric Diagnoses &
Medications
By MICHAEL R. EMLET
This book was very unique writing and compelling to read
with also navigate pointers to help in resolving some of the tension felt
between the practice of psychiatric labeling and biblical counseling the
struggles of the human brain and soul, while neither dismissing labeling
completely nor fully embracing hook, line, and sinker, everything taught in
modern psychiatry. This book had to give us to understand more about human
psychological suffering from a gospel-centered perspective. Drawing on his
personal experience with those who are afflicted by problems of mental health
this book will lead us away from a reductionist approach to one that is
holistic and includes both heart and body. This will remind our culture
increasingly describes problems in terms of psychiatric diagnoses and increasingly
seeks solutions through psychoactive medication, this will be our time need to
think more carefully about labels we are using and the drugs we are taking, I
highly recommend to everyone must to read this book. “ I received complimentary
a copy of this book free from Litfuse Publicity for this review”.
