What You Can Do to Help

In this audio talk, Ed Welch explores how to biblically engage and care for individuals and families affected by psychiatric diagnoses. Rather than focusing only on labels, Welch encourages us to look deeper—seeking to truly know the person behind the diagnosis and to walk with them in prayerful, gospel-centered ways. He offers three key insights: know the person well enough to pray with them, not just for them; seek to understand the unique challenges they face; and recognize how a diagnosis can affect the entire family. Through personal stories and counseling examples, Welch invites listeners to move toward others, offering comfort, wisdom, and Christ in their suffering.
