Biblical counselor Edward Welch examines varieties of brain dysfunction, psychiatric problems, and more, while giving scriptural principles for helping sufferers and discerning between bodily weakness and sin. Revised and updated edition.
Welch deals with this topic biblically and compassionately. He does not simply dismiss the influence of physical health on spiritual problems, but rather gives clear direction on how one can distinguish the two while recommending treatment for both.
Required reading

This book is very well written and it gives the reader a lot to digest. I would not call it an easy read but it is very much worth your time as it dispells many of the excuses and just out right lies being fed to us by society with the help of the medical profession. The most outstanding feature was the fact that the book exposes sin as just that and nothing more, something few people are willing to do these days.
