Their silence comes from a stigmatizing ignorance, not only about the prevalence of such suffering but also about effective ways to address it. I therefore use sociological and psychological research as well as first-person narratives of suicidal suffering to clarify these experiences and to outline a social justice approach for healing them. Christian communities must strive to understand people's various pathways to and from suicidality, including relevant social factors. Further, Christians must examine their tradition and proclaim God's capacity to face human anguish lovingly. |
