Take them to Jesus, encourage a faith walk with God and participation in the spiritual disciplines. Jesus Christ and His Word is what makes our ministry distinctly different from other mental health advocacies.  Their ministries focus on education, research, and advocating with governments and legislatures—and we support them. However they do not, or cannot integrate the spiritual dimension into their material—like we do! To the unbeliever we preach the message of faith—Jesus Christ died as a substitute for sinners and rose from the dead on the third day. To the believer we preach the message of repentance—turning away from sin.  Through this ministry Mike explains how he is learning to use the spiritual disciplines to help him have a good mood. There are many more spiritual disciplines but the following ten are the ones that Mike focuses his time on. They are:

1.      Praise and worship.
2.      Walking in step with the Holy Spirit.
3.      Bible study.
4.      Service.
5.      Community prayer.
6.      Mentoring and accountability relationships.
7.      Small groups.
8.      Submission.
9.      Church involvement.
10.  Honoring personal commitments.
