Crisis in the Pulpit

Descripción

"The mental health of African American pastors, who are called to minister to an oppressed people and speak truth to power, while undergoing the same daily trauma of racism and violence from external sources, is paradigmatic to Prophet Elijah. He was attacked relentlessly by those who held power (Jezebel/King Ahab/Prophets of Baal) causing him to fall into a deep depression where he prayed for God to take his life. The pressure of social ills emanating from systemic racism in high and low places pointed at African American pastors is debilitating, depressing, and destructive thus eroding their mental health. Can self-care improve the mental health of African American pastors dealing with systemic racism?" -- Leaf [ii].
