  • Summary

  • Welcome to a new season of Fearless and Free podcast, where we take a holistic, spirit-soul-body approach to healing and wholeness. I am your host Dana Grindal, prayer minister and founder of Whitestone Ministries International. You have found a safe place to connect with the body of Christ, where we challenge Christians to experience the abundant life of Christ, fearless and free. In this season, we have been discussing Healing the Heart of the Church. Today, we are highlighting the need to discuss healing in the area of suicide awareness and prevention. Suicide rates worldwide have skyrocketed in recent years. It is a mental health challenge facing people everywhere. Every loss of life is a tragedy. When there is a loss of life to suicide in the church, the ripple effects can be long-lasting and devastating when people do not know how to respond. This is an area where we can receive training and help to respond in life-giving ways to our communities. I have an expert guest here for the next two episodes to help empower us to be a voice of healing. Join us for this important episode as we: Discuss important verbiage regarding suicide that can help with the healing process. Clarify common misunderstandings among Christians about suicide. Connect you to practical tools and resources to help you be empowered to know how to respond to walk with those in your community who have lost a loved one to suicide. ***If you or someone you love has been touched by suicide, help is available. Contact information is listed at the end of the episode and at the end of these show notes. Our expert guest today is Molly McNamara! Molly McNamara MHA, NE-BC, is the founder and Executive Director of His Whole House. She holds credentials as an ordained/licensed minister, nurse, certified grief & bereavement counselor, and trauma practitioner. Alongside a team of trained prayer therapists, she draws from advanced trauma concepts and science in conjunction with biblical principles in the work of Prayer Ministry. Contact Molly at WEBSITE: www.hiswholehouse.org EMAIL: healing@hiswholehouse.org To train individually or as a ministry or business in suicide awareness and prevention, see Molly’s training course CARRY+ CARRY+ | His Whole House For advanced training or to become a prayer minister, sign up at Home (teachingfellowshipinstitute.org) As the body of Christ, you have the privilege to walk with one another in joy and sorrow. Romans 12:15 Says, “Be happy with those who are happy, and weep with those who weep.” There is comfort and healing in the community. The gift of presence is one of the most important and healing gifts you can give to those who are grieving. Where you do not make space to grieve and support one another, where you skim over pain with denial and Christian quotes, you will have trauma buried that will impact you in the future. If we are seeking a move of God we have to prepare our hearts to receive it and carry the weighty responsibility. Now is the time for healing the heart of the church, to find healing and wholeness for our own heart, and to move forward fearless and free, to be all He has created us to be.
