Strong in the Lord: A Women's Bible Study on Faith and Mental Health

In seasons of anxiety, exhaustion, or quiet discouragement, you are not left to yourself. Christ calls the weary to Himself and gives rest that endures.

Strong in the Lord: A Women’s Bible Study on Faith and Mental Health offers a careful, Scripture-centered approach to understanding mental and emotional struggles in light of God’s Word. Written by Dr. Jennifer K. Londgren—a licensed marriage and family therapist, nationally certified counselor, and professor with expertise in anxiety, addiction, and women’s mental health—this eight-week study thoughtfully brings together clinical insight and Lutheran theology.

Addressing experiences such as anxiety, rumination, emotional overload, and relational strain, this study does not separate mental health from the life of faith. Instead, it returns again and again to Christ’s promises—given in the Gospel and in Baptism—where identity, comfort, and hope are certain. Each session includes Scripture, guided teaching, reflection questions, and prayer, making it well suited for both personal study and group conversation.

What You’ll Gain:

• A biblically grounded understanding of mental and emotional health
• Clarity in distinguishing thoughts, feelings, and identity in light of Christ
• Practical tools for facing anxiety and overwhelm shaped by Scripture
• Insight into patterns, root struggles, and wise boundaries
• Encouragement to live honestly within the Body of Christ
• Confidence that your worth rests in Christ’s work, not your own

Rooted in Scripture and faithful to the Lutheran Confessions, Strong in the Lord speaks candidly about suffering while bearing witness to the sure and steady comfort found in Christ alone.
Here, in God’s Word and promises, find reprieve in Strong in the Lord.
