Why is it that you never see your favorite superheroes checking in to the doctor's office? Is it that we portray the image that in order to be a "hero" to someone that you have to be almost invincible to pain or suffering?
Depression and other mental health struggles do not discriminate. An important part of any kind of human service or ministry is to be mentally and spiritually well. Too often, in our flesh, we try to mask the perceived weaknesses associated with depression, anxiety, and emotional suffering that it eventually leads to burnout or a host of other problems.
This week, we're saying, "NO MORE!"

This week, we've centered our discussion around an article on 8 qualities the most resilient people share.
As business leaders and entrepreneurs (parents, teens, young adults), you know that success requires the resilience to keep moving ahead even when confronted with obstacles and roadblocks. You have a willingness to swim upstream and not give up simply because the tide is against you. Resilient people are successful because they possess these eight qualities...
