    Mention it in sermons and talk about what God says about it, how a depressed person can call on God for help, how a person could use God’d truth to combat negative and often times untrue thinking. I think it would be helpful for a church to have a depression/bipolar support group…there are many in a congregation suffering alone and suffering the stigma from society.

“If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.”
- 1 Corinthians 13:1-3
