Gracious Engagement

Adam4d is a popular Christian webcomic that is often shared on social media. One comic specifically addresses the shame Christians who struggle with depression and anxiety can face from other believers. The moral of the comic is asking church members to more graciously engage brothers and sisters afflicted with mental illness and support them.

Christ, through his death and resurrection, has freed us from the shame of our sin and struggles. We must remember this with every believer we encounter, especially if they struggle with something we don’t understand.
