How does a Christian care for someone suffering with depression and anxiety? The Rev. Dr. Stephen Pietsch, Associate Professor of Practical Theology at Concordia Seminary in St. Louis, joins Andy and Sarah to talk about what sparked his interest in pastoral care and counseling, how his pastoral ministry shaped how he teaches pastoral care to his seminary students, how the teachings of Martin Luther informed how he cares for people suffering from mental illness, and what attendees at the Lay Bible Institute on “Christian Caregiving for People Suffering with Depression and Anxiety” can expect to learn.
