Hello Levi,

Over the past several years, we have heard from Christian leaders all over the globe: "we feel ill-equipped to handle the issues of mental health in our churches and we need a simple program to help."

Not only are the struggles of their congregations and communities growing, but many pastors and spiritual leaders themselves are facing increasing challenges in the area of their mental health.

That's why I'm excited to announce the launch of Churches That Heal: an all-new, digital resource designed to equip pastors and leaders with a biblical and psychologically-sound plan to handle issues of mental health in their churches while also guiding them on their own healing journey.

Amidst the mental health epidemic our society faces, the COVID-19 crisis has compounded stress, anxiety, depression, and pain in churches and communities worldwide in unthinkable ways. This is something I've been developing for the better part of 18 months, and isn't God's timing remarkable??

Now, more than ever, is the time for the Church to become a place the hurting can find healing. Churches That Heal is the culmination of my life's work in the arena of mental health and the next step in my desire to help ensure the local church is the best place for hurting people to find healing.

Prayerfully joining you on this journey,?

Henry

Hi friends,
?
Next week I'll be hosting a free webinar all about the topic I'm asked about most: boundaries. Even better? I'm co-hosting with renowned leadership speaker and sports agent,?Molly Fletcher.?
?

Boundaries: Take control of your life
and maximize your energy

Tuesday, 11/10 at 2:45pm ET

?
Energy and boundaries certainly go hand in hand. In order to manage your energy, you must also be able to set limits and boundaries. In today's hyper-digital, always-on world it can seem like there aren't enough hours in the day and that burnout feels inevitable.

During this conversation, you'll hear Molly and myself discuss:

• How to set legitimate boundaries
• How to prioritize what matters most
• How to stop feeling guilty when you set boundaries
• How to manage your energy rather than your time
  ?

?
See you there,
?
Henry

Hello Levi,

I recently told you about the Churches That Heal Church Program and my heart to see it equip church leaders to respond to mental health issues in their communities and to experience healing themselves.?

If you're like me, you've witnessed how a growth journey is expedited when done in the context of community. That's why I'm thrilled that something else we're offering is the Churches That Heal Small Group Study. The study exists to help people recover from wounds from their past and grow more into the image of God in community. This is the perfect complement to the Church Program for communities who are ready to go deeper. It gets to the real work of the growth path, and builds community in the process. People will learn the steps, changes, and shifts in thinking and behaving that are needed to get well.

Resources include:
?

• A six-week video series leading to a happier, healthier you!

• A 30-page Participant Workbook that aligns with the video sessions and contains valuable, interactive content that will lead to introspection and growth.

• A Small Group Leader Guide to prepare the leader and help them facilitate the group effectively.

• Bonus materials including Healing Declarations and Healing Prayers.?

• 15 group members logins so each participant can conveniently access the platform themselves.

I encourage you to roll out the Small Group Study through your small group ministry in conjunction with launching the Churches That Heal Church Program. Church Program members may choose to purchase the Small Group Study on behalf of their groups (bulk pricing available) or direct groups to purchase the study themselves.

The Small Group Study is also a great option for para-ministries who would like to host Churches That Heal small groups as a special offering, or any individual or small group with a desire for personal healing whose church is not participating in the Churches That Heal Church Program.

Access the help you have been searching for to bring God's plan for healing to fruition in your own life, the life of your church staff, and the life of those you shepherd.

Your community's healing journey begins today with Churches That Heal.?

On the journey with you,

Henry

Friends,

According to a new Gallup poll, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused America's mental health to deteriorate to the worst point it has been in two decades. But encouragingly, the study also revealed that frequent churchgoers had the least mental health decline. That is one of many reasons the Church is so important in this season. And with Churches That Heal, churches can receive the tools to best serve their congregation and communities and help combat the stress and anxiety we are all currently facing.

For over four decades I've dedicated myself to developing resources to address unique mental health challenges in today's culture. It has been one of my goals to lift the veil on the conversation of mental health in the church. My latest work, Churches That Heal, addresses just that. And given the unprecedented challenges people are facing, it has never been more critically important for every church to be a church that helps the hurting.

This holiday season, support your church and pastors by purchasing Churches That Heal as a gift for them. Many church leaders know the critical importance of mental health, but few know what to do about these issues. Churches That Heal can help. And, we've made it easy for you to gift your pastor this simple, turnkey, all-digital solution to begin to address these complex issues.

The time is now for us to collectively work together for the hurting among us. My hope is that Churches That Heal will help those in your church and communities who are struggling to see the church as a place they can run to, not away from.?

I pray that every church becomes a church that heals! It begins with you.

Last week I began sharing with you about a simple formula found throughout Scripture. It's one that has the power to make anything better - the three ingredients necessary for growth.

This formula comes from a story found in Luke 13:6-9:

"A man had a fig tree growing in his vineyard, and he went to look for fruit on it but did not find any. So he said to the man who took care of the vineyard, 'For three years now I've been coming to look for fruit on this fig tree and haven't found any. Cut it down! Why should it use up the soil?'

"'Sir,' the man replied, 'leave it alone for one more year, and I'll dig around it and fertilize it. If it bears fruit next year, fine! If not, then cut it down.'"?

We already covered the first two ingredients (so be sure to go back and read about them if you haven't already):?

1) We''re going to dig up the truth.?
2) We're going to apply grace.?

That brings us to our third ingredient:?

3) We're going to give it time.?
?
Giving something time isn't attending one meeting or one retreat. It doesn't look like a quick fix. You can''t take a tree and dip it in the dirt once a weekend and expect it to grow. You have to plant it in a process where it gets watered over, and over, and over again. It gets pruned and it gets fertilized.?

I have a friend who was a horrible alcoholic. He lost three families and three businesses before he got into recovery and now he has been sober for 30+ years. I once asked him, "How did you get sober?" He responded, "Oh, it wasn''t hard, I went to three AA meetings a day." He said his goal was to make it from the end of one meeting to the beginning of the next one without stopping at the liquor store in between. And then after a while he was able to move to one meeting a day and then eventually a few meetings a week.
?
I don''t know what your dosage level is, but I do know this: it''s not one injection. Likewise, you don''t eat one meal and have it last you through the year. God has given us a metabolic function where we take what we did in that group or meeting, and then we go out, live it out, then we fail, then we do well. And then we keep coming back again and again. That''s called growth.?
?
So here''s what I want you to do: I want you to take the parable of the fig tree and ask yourself: What are the ways in which I'm getting the grace, the truth, and the time that I need? Consider why healing or growth haven''t happened for you in the past. Maybe you had two out of the three elements. Let me tell you this: God does not expect you to change by yourself, by your own knowledge, by your own strength, or by your own wisdom. If that was possible, He would not have had to die.?
?
Think about how much God believes in your inability. We judge ourselves because of our inability, but He embraced the idea of our inability so deeply that He died for it.?
?
Now what are we doing judging ourselves and anyone else when He died to stop the judgment? Jesus didn''t die just to leave us as we are, depressed and anxious and so on; He died to begin the process of removing the judge that kills the growth. Jesus sanctifies us over time by bringing us the grace and truth that will heal what ails us.?

It's that healing power which gives me hope for every individual and every Christian community who are struggling with the unique mental health challenges present in today's culture. And I want to help.

For over four decades I've dedicated myself to developing resources to address those challenges and to lifting the veil on the conversation of mental health in the Church. Churches That Heal is the culmination of my life's work in this arena and the next step in my desire to help ensure the local church is the best place for hurting people to find healing. I invite you to visit the site to learn more about this digital resource and how it can help you take the next steps on your own healing journey.?

Walking with you,

Henry

Dear Levi,

My heart is to equip leaders to care for their own mental health as well as the mental health of those they lead. The challenges that pastors and ministry leaders face are truly unique, especially in this current season.?

That's why last month I partnered with Pastor Stovall Weems from Celebration Church to co-host a free, online event and have a powerful conversation about the mental health crisis and what we can, and should, do about it. Be sure to check it out if you haven't already!?

And by the way, I know many of you will have specific questions about what this looks like in your own context after watching the event. I'm actually hosting a private Q&A session on July 28 to dive further into overcoming the specific challenges associated with helping people in the Church find healing and wholeness in their mental health.?

If you'd like to join us for that special time together and submit your questions (and enjoy other benefits of a resource centered around the Church and mental health), all you need to do is purchase the Churches That Heal Church Program to become a member of Churches that Heal and then you will receive an exclusive invitation to participate in the webinar live (and also have access to it on demand).

Either way, know that you are on my mind and heart often these days.?

With you on the journey,

Henry

Dear Levi,

We know that as leaders, you are being faced with decisions of unequaled weight each and every day. Decisions that relate to the organizations you love, the missions and visions you feel called to serve, and real people's lives. Amidst the chaos happening all around us, how do we, as leaders, make sound, wise, and forward-thinking decisions through these unchartered waters?
?
That's a question I'm hearing daily right now, and it's why I'm doing a special webinar on The Psychology of Decision-Making During Crisis exclusively for Churches That Heal members tomorrow, Tuesday, June 9 at 2:00pm EST. Drawing on my experience coaching leaders through the national crises of 2001 and 2008, I've created all-new content to help leaders navigate the unique challenges of decision-making during difficult seasons.
?
The good news for you? Even if you aren't a Churches That Heal member, you can still sign up by tomorrow to get access to this LIVE webinar. Churches That Heal is my comprehensive, digital program designed to equip churches, pastors, and the body of Christ to experience emotional healing, and to respond to mental health issues in their communities. To be eligible for my webinar on The Psychology of Decision-Making During Crisis, all you need to do is sign up for the Churches That Heal Church Program (or gift it to your pastor/church) to become a member and receive an exclusive invitation to watch the webinar live (and also have access to it on demand). But you must sign up for it by Tuesday, June 9 at 2:00pm EST!
?
And, that's not all. We want to provide an additional resource to you as you navigate these challenging times as a leader: a free, annual membership to my expansive digital message platform, Church OnDemand with the purchase of a Churches That Heal Church Program. With over 400 videos searchable by length and topic, Church OnDemand includes over 100 topical leadership videos as well as full-length faith messages you can share with your church body, or simply steal and teach the content yourself! The short, hard-hitting leadership videos are what I call Studio Sessions and are ideal to go through individually or share in a virtual team meeting. Whether you're in the workforce, raising children, serving in ministry, or pastoring a church, this exclusive video content is designed to help Christ-followers become healthier people and more fruitful leaders.
?
Don't wait to take advantage of this bundle we've curated especially for you. The burden rests on us as leaders and my heart is to come alongside of you and do whatever I can to help lighten the load. I coached many CEO's through 9/11 and the financial crisis of 2008 and in this new season of crisis, I've sensed my calling is to shepherd pastors and leaders in the Christian community so that their leadership and ministries can thrive.
?
That starts with helping you join the Churches That Heal Church Program so you can have access to tomorrow's Psychology of Decision-Making During Crisis webinar, all that Churches That Heal has to offer, as well as a free, annual membership to Church OnDemand. My prayer is that they bless you richly.

Hello Levi,

Thank you for taking time to learn about Churches That Heal and my passion to see the local church become a beacon of healing for communities all around the world.?

If you're a leader in a church, the Churches That Heal Church Program is the very best place for you to start on a path that will equip you to respond to mental health issues in your community.

We've made the path simple:

1. Pastors and staff teams get healthy first. After all, the health of a community begins with the health of its leaders. Through a staff retreat and small groups, church staff teams will experience a Pastoral Healing Journey, complete with a Leader Guide created specifically for church staff members.

2. Then, pastors go through Mental Health Training where you'll learn practical, nuts-and-bolts answers to deal with the challenging mental health issues your church faces.

3. Following the Pastoral Healing Journey and Mental Health Training, you will introduce the content to your community or church either through a Sunday morning series or half-day community event. In addition to videos for the event, we provide you with a Participant Guide and marketing and event materials.?

4. Then we encourage you to roll out the Small Group Study through your small groups ministry so that your entire church body can experience this healing message and transformational journey.?

5. Finally, you will engage in ongoing training material addressing specific mental health issues and emotional challenges your community may be facing, as well as live COVID-19 Crisis Leadership Coaching webinars.?

If you're thinking "we feel ill-equipped to handle the issues of mental health in our church and we need a simple program to help" then Churches That Heal was created for you. The Church Program is where real-life mental health issues can be discussed, wrestled with, and solved through the program content and the discussions that will happen in your community as a result. You need this, and the Church - the world - needs more mental health advocates like you.?

There's nothing stopping you from taking the first step on this journey by joining Churches That Heal today. In fact, today is the last day to take advantage of your limited time offer - if you join Churches That Heal now you'll be eligible for a free membership to Church OnDemand - my video platform with over 400 leadership videos. I'd hate for you to miss out on that!

It's so important to me that you feel like you're being taken care of from start to finish. If you have any questions about Churches That Heal, please don't hesitate to reply to this email and someone on my team will take care of you. The last thing I want is for you to miss out because of a question or challenge that we can solve together.?

If there's a final word I would leave you with it's this: the mental health crisis is one we, the Church, cannot afford to ignore. God invites us to partner with Him on His mission to heal that which is broken.

I pray the local church becomes a beacon for healing in communities all around the world and that every church will become a church that heals.

Prayerfully with you on this journey,

Henry

Before we dig into the three ingredients necessary for growth that I mentioned in my previous email, I want to talk about the posture we should have when approaching growth.?

Let's start with a parable that Jesus told. It's found in Luke 13:6-9:

A man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard and he came looking for fruit on it and didn''t find any. So he said to the gardener, "Let's cut it down. Why even have it use up the soil?" The gardener turned to the owner and said, "Not yet. Let me do three things: let me dig around, fertilize it, and let''s give it another year. And then if it doesn''t produce fruit, then we can cut it down." (paraphrased from Luke 13:6-9)
?
Now, the Bible talks about the process of growth in 80,000 different ways and so does all of the research. But this parable always stood out to me as one of the most incredible pictures of how anything that is stuck gets "unstuck." Maybe you can relate to the fig tree because you or someone in your life is stuck too: trapped in depression, lifelong anxiety, stress, problematic relationships, or codependency.?
?
We've all been through what I refer to as a "bad time." Bad times are periods when we are applying some kind of effort to change an area in which we feel stuck, but it''s just not getting better. Maybe we go to church or see a counselor, but we still don't see the results we desire.

Notice that the tree was planted in the vineyard. It wasn''t off on the side of the road. But for years, it didn't grow or produce fruit. And finally, the vineyard owner had the most predictable response that we all have to failure, and that is judgment. There''s not a lot of fixing that goes on in a courtroom. The apostle Paul said every human was born underneath this law of God.?

Paul was clear in the book of Romans about what it feels like to live under the law. He said the law produces wrath. Maybe you''ve been angry at yourself. Maybe you've even been angry at others for failing you. And when anger rises to the surface, other emotions come with it: specifically guilt and shame.?

But anger, guilt, and shame don't produce results. They're what keep us in a place of being stuck. There''s only one response that the Bible says produces change, and that is when we feel sorrow - godly sorrow that produces repentance. And this sorrow means instead of feeling angry or guilty, we start to feel sadness instead. In our sorrow, we develop a sense that we need to do something about the things that hold us back.?
?
Enter our Advocate, Jesus. Sometimes our default makes us think Jesus would tell us to "pray more" or "work harder." But that places the responsibility back on us. That puts us back into a cycle of shame, guilt, and anger. Jesus didn''t give any instructions for how to judge yourself better. What He said was, "Stop passing judgment."?
?
The gospel of Jesus begins with saying "No" to condemnation. In Romans 7, Paul talked about a behavioral cycle we all experience: "The good that I would do, I can''t do. The very bad thing I said I would never do again, I just did. I''m caught in this cycle." And like many of us he asked, How am I going to get out of this? Who''s going to save me??
?
More prayer? No. Consistent Bible study? No. Regular church attendance? Again, no. All of these actions place the weight back on us, and we were never meant to save ourselves. Thanks be to God for Jesus. Paul said we didn't have to stay stuck in our own negative cycle. He said the first step in getting better is recognizing that "There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus" (Romans 8:1).?

So if you''re depressed, if you''re anxious, if you''re addicted, whatever it is, I want you to find your advocacy. We have an incarnational gospel and that means when Jesus walks in the room, God walks in the room. The body of Christ is interconnected for a reason; when each part does its work, the body heals itself. If you have an infected finger, you don't cut it off and put it in a drawer next to an anatomy book! How well do you think that healing process would go? No, the body is designed to heal itself as the head, Jesus, is organizing the body. It starts with that body, the Church, looking you in the eye and saying, "Hi, we're glad you''re here. We struggle too, and there''s no condemnation in this room." A healthy body knows it doesn't cut down the fig tree.?

Once the gardener said not to condemn the tree, to not cut it down, what happened next? He said, let me get to work. You are accepted as you are, but you're not done growing. There is growth and healing to be found in Christ. In my next two emails, we'll dive into the work we have to do: the three ingredients necessary for growth.

Walking with you,

Henry

Hello Levi,?
?
We hope that this email finds you doing well. We wanted you to be the first to know about an exciting new resource that Dr. Henry Cloud is releasing this spring. Churches That Heal will be a content driven, digital platform, that helps the church become a place the hurting run to - not away from. Our foundational content includes church staff retreat, pastoral healing small groups, mental health training and church launch event.

We're coming to you first because we know you share our conviction for those who may be struggling with anxiety, loneliness, and feelings of inadequacy. We're looking for a select few individuals to network among local churches to help entire communities grow more in the image of God.

Will you join us?
?
If you're interested, all you need to do is respond to a few short questions here and someone from our team will reach out to you with next steps. We hope to hear from you.?

Hello Levi,

I've loved being on this journey with you as we've discussed the three ingredients necessary for growth. I'm so thankful that God gives us treasures like that in Scripture - steps that when we put them into action, bring about tremendous life change.?

To me, it reinforces that Jesus is on a mission to heal that which is broken. And He invites us to partner with Him on that mission.

In my research I have come across a few statistics that show how mental and emotional health issues impact church leaders, those they lead, and the people in their community alike:?
?

• Suicide currently ranks as the second leading cause of death for persons age 10 to 24.

• Nearly 60 percent of pastors say they've counseled someone with mental illness.

• 23 percent of pastors acknowledge having personally struggled with mental illness themselves.

• 75 percent of pastors report severe stress causing anguish, worry, bewilderment, anger, depression, fear, and alienation.

Many of us know the critical importance of mental health. But few of us know what to do about these issues.?

For over four decades I've dedicated myself to developing resources to address unique mental health challenges in today's culture. It has been one of my goals to lift the veil on the conversation of mental health in the church. My latest work, Churches That Heal, addresses just that.?

Dear friend,
?
The COVID-19 pandemic is certainly not the first crisis faced by Christian leaders but it is undeniably unique and will create a new "before" and "after." A question I'm getting a lot is, how can leaders manage their own fears and uncertainties while also guiding their people through theirs?
?
I'm glad to tell you that on Wednesday, March 25 at 2:00PM ET, I will be hosting a FREE webinar to answer that question. In this 90-minute webinar, we will discuss the psychology of crisis as it relates to the unprecedented global pandemic and I will provide practical and biblical encouragement for Christian leaders such as yourself who are courageously shepherding their communities in these uncertain times.
?
To claim a spot in the webinar, register today. Spots to join us live are limited but we will be making it available on demand afterward. Either way, I certainly hope you can join us.
?
Know that you're on my heart and mind, and in my prayers, during these trying times.

Hello Levi,

I hope you were able to take a look at ChurchesThatHeal.com. It's been a career-long goal of mine to see this come to fruition and I couldn't be more excited to have you join me.?

Many of you are pastors or leaders in the local church and Churches That Heal speaks directly to a need you have for a program to address issues of mental health in your community.?

Others of you aren't a pastor or church leader but you attend a great local church. If that's you and you've already started the conversation with your pastor about becoming a Churches That Heal church, I want to say thank you.?

If you're ready to share more, but aren't sure where to start, I'd love to help. Below is a message you can copy and paste in a personal email to a leader at your local church.

________________

Hello ________,?

Over the past few weeks I''ve been learning from Dr. Henry Cloud about how to grow in the areas of mental and emotional health. Dr. Cloud has spent decades helping church leaders and individuals address the unique mental health challenges of today's culture and his latest work is designed to equip churches to play an active role in addressing the growing mental health crisis. I really think our church would benefit from looking into this and I would love to talk with you more about it in person.?

You can go to ChurchesThatHeal.com to learn more about the program, which includes pastoral and staff healing, mental health training, and church-wide launch materials and resources. More than ever, I believe our church could be a safe place of healing for our community and I think the Churches That Heal program could really help us get there.?

I look forward to talking with you in person.?

________________


Another option is to consider gifting Churches That Heal to your pastor. Either way, I so appreciate your commitment to helping see the Church become the best place for the hurting to find healing.

Blessed by your partnership in this endeavor,?

Henry


P.S. My team also put together some great resources you can share to your social media accounts. You can check them out here!
