Episode 12: "Dear God, Meet me on the Psych Ward" with Rev. David Finnegan-Hosey
Listen now
Description
Gabby hangs out with author and minister Rev. David Finnegan-Hosey to talk about his book, Christ on the Psych Ward. Christ on the Psych Ward walks its readers through David's multiple hospitalizations, journey with Bipolar Disorder, and discovery of Christ and the Vulnerable God on the psych ward with him. In this conversation, Gabby and David discuss David's story, his theology around Divine presence (and felt absence) in unlikely places, and his moving forward living with both the devastating realities of mental illness and the loving truth of God. Thought-provoking, compelling, and heart-breaking, David's story is the story of a man who finds and holds onto God in the midst of tragedy and devastation and who finds hope, truth, and victory through it all.  Content Warning/Trigger Warning:  Bipolar Disorder, suicide, self-harm, addiction  Guest Instagram: David's Instagram Guest Website: David's Website  Support “Dear God, I’m Sad”: https://patreon.com/deargod_imsad?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator “Dear God, I’m Sad” Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/deargod_imsad/ “Dear God, I’m Sad” Youtube: https://youtube.com/channel/UCT2CH_vIJB6DA-odxhTs2gQ   “Dear God, I’m Sad” Podcast: https://deargodimsad.buzzsprout.com  Gabby’s Website: gabriellemwilkinson.com  “Dear God, I’m Sad” Email: [email protected]  “Dear God, I’m Sad” TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@deargod_imsad  Not Always Okay link (15% off using this link or using Coupon Code DGIS15): https://notalwaysokay.company/gabby-wilkinson  We The Believers link (15% off using this link or 20% off using Coupon Code DGIS20): https://wethebelieversclothing.com/?ref=J06XSUFI  Elevated Faith link (15% off using this link or 15% off using Coupon Code GWilkinson15): https://elevatedfaith.com/?aff=42217  Bond and Seek link (10% off using this link or 10% off using Coupon Code DGIS10): https://bondandseek.com/?ref=zEooAfucrv6NTC  Steadfast and Sustained link (10% off using the link or 10% off using Coupon Code GABBY10): http://steadfastandsustained.com/gabby10  Support the show
