Hey everyone, Amber here! On this World Mental Health Day, join me as I share some personal insights from my upcoming book #sisterhoodoftheshortyellowpencils: Mental Health Mayhem, One Sticky Note at a Time. Let's talk about what took me from wearing the mask to the realness of the church I experienced in a psych ward. It's time to create a community that reflects the heart of Christ that embraces real healing and judgement free zone that draws people into a closer relationship with Him to build a more inclusive community. Let's truly see the people behind the steeple together.
