In our next episode in our series on Mental Health, I welcome Wendy Gorton-Hill to the podcast. Wendy is a wife and mother who has recently walked a painful road with her son's substance abuse. Substance use disorder is closely linked to mental illness and the pain and stress experienced by family members can leave them struggling with their own mental health.
In this conversation, Wendy shares her powerful testimony of God's relentless pursuit of His children through the parable of the Prodigal Son from Luke 15, which is the basis of her book "Watching the Wayward - Psalms for Parents of Prodigals."
