Where Is God When I Struggle With Self-Harm? Cassandra Smith

Self-Harm is a very real issue. The question, "Where Is God When I Struggle With Self-Harm?" deserves space to be discussed. That is why this short booklet was created, with 20+ discussion points combined with directional resources was created. Inside, you will find short discussions, many which are paired with links to videos, in which we will provide insight and encouragement about a difficult topic. Many of these discussions include: -What Is Self-Harm?-How Many Individuals Struggle? -What Help Is Available? -What Does It Look Like To Call A Hotline? But beyond that, we dive into the spiritual side. After all, we are asking a big question when we ask, "Where is God?" But I happen to believe He is okay with that. Through ten tips which look at the spiritual side, this booklet takes a journey into the unasked questions of doubt, pain, struggle, and purpose. Asking the question is not wrong. It is brave to go into such sacred spaces with our pain and struggle-because I believe God desires to be with us, even in our darkest places. This booklet also offers resource guides for those who struggle, including hotlines, websites, articles, and video links for those who struggle and the ministries that seek to reach those who do. Answering the question is a journey, yet we hope this short booklet helps you to navigate the path-and for you to know you aren't alone in it.
