How Can Christians Respond to Suicidal Thoughts?

In the past 3 years of doing this podcast, our most listened to episode is where we asked the question: “How should I respond to a friend struggling with suicidal thoughts?”
Clearly this topic is on the minds of many teenagers, so we wanted to continue the conversation by asking “How can Christians respond to suicidal thoughts?” We know there are very few topics that arouse as much sorrow and fear as suicide, but we do not want to let these feelings stop us from speaking on the issue. So, whether you are struggling with suicidal thoughts, or know someone who is, we hope this will be a helpful resource for you.
