A Theology of Mental Illness (#142)

Today I am joined by Dr. Marcia Webb, Professor at Seattle Pacific University and author of “Toward a Theology of Psychological Disorder.” Well suited for the show, Dr. Webb’s work focuses on the intersection of theology and mental health and how we make sense of those two together. Along with discussing her book, we cover some of Christianity’s various explanations for mental illness, demonic possession, and the like. We also get into topics like anxiety & depression, human suffering, and projecting one’s idea of God.Dr. Webb’s Faculty Page: https://spu.edu/academics/school-of-psychology-family-community/faculty-and-staff/marcia-webb-profileToward a Theology of Psychological Disorder: https://www.amazon.com/Toward-Theology-Psychological-Disorder-Marcia/dp/149820211X/ref=asc_df_149820211X/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=312142103956&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=10940079895597588520&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9019667&hvtargid=pla-494856882457&psc=1Follow Dan on IG: www.instagram.com/dancoke/Or Twitter: twitter.com/DanKochFaith deconstruction resources: www.soyouredeconstructing.com/Edited by Josh Gilbert ([email protected] -- he is accepting more work!)Join the Patreon for exclusive episodes (and more) every month: patreon.com/dankochEmail about the "sliding scale" for the Patreon: [email protected] Patron-only FB group: tinyurl.com/ycvbbf98Website: www.dankochwords.com/yhp.htmlJoin Dan's email list: www.dankochwords.com/Artwork by sprungle.co/
