We are pleased this month to offer another chapter from Senior Editor Gene Shelburne’s recent book, The God Who Puts Us Back Together. This material is owned and copyrighted by College Press. Our thanks to them for allowing us to share it. As Gene’s title indicates, we believe that God is in the business of healing humanity’s brokenness. Of the many ways people in our world are broken, perhaps the most cruel, both to individuals tormented by it and to families who must watch and deal with their own pain, is the brokenness wrought by mental illness. No easy answers, but we serve a Savior who came “to bring good tidings to the afflicted” and “to bind up the brokenhearted.”
