If you've given up on your "happily ever after," you are not alone … and there is hope. From the author of Blessed are the Crazy: Breaking the Silence about Mental Illness, Family, and Church comes a deeply personal, honest, and hopeful book to offer healing and support, and to show how marriages can thrive despite mental illness. Mental illness affects at least a quarter of all marriages. In Blessed Union, pastor and acclaimed mental health and disabilities advocate Sarah Griffith Lund shares her own and other couples' unique stories to shed light on how mental illness impacts marriage. Combining psychology and faith, Lund offers new insights, encouragement, and tools to help couples and those who care about them manage their own challenges. The book includes guided journal pages for deeper reflection.
