| Summary: | Frontmatter -- Foreword -- Contents -- Introduction -- Does Faith Heal? -- Religion and Health from the View of Psychology of Religion -- Depression and Spirituality/Religion -- Depression and Pastoral Care from the Viewpoint of Pastors in Germany -- What Motivates Volunteers in Congregations to Take Care of People with Mental Disorders? -- Is Faith a Source of Strength? Do Congregations Offer Support? -- Spirituality, Congregational Support, and Mental Health: The Example of Depression -- Mental Health and Mental Disorders: Knowledge, Perceptions, and Attitudes towards People with Mental Diseases -- Global Mental Health -- Promoting Mental Health at a Congregational Level -- “Nayi Roshni” – “New Light” for People Suffering from Mental Disorders -- Contributors -- Bibliography -- Online Sources -- Index This book brings together studies on how congregations have resources which can promote health with a focus on accompanying people with depression as well as how congregations can be sensitized to mental health and the needs of persons living with mental disorders. In this collaboration, a close connection between research-studies was combined with a congregation-based implementation. In addition, a selection of surveys provide deep insights into the interaction between pastoral care, medical health care projects and spiritual care as a new discipline |
