Episode #16: Learning To Be

This week, Joe talks with Pastor Juanita Campbell Rasmus about her new book “Learning To Be” which releases today, September 15, 2020. In this episode, get to know Pastor Juanita and her inspiring journey as she encourages all of us to Learn To Be! Special Notes from Author: A. How is this book connected to faith? In the forward of Learning To Be, Tina Knowles Lawson writes, I’ve seen her journey from the self-professed “good girl” to a leader who wholeheartedly seeks God with a level of authenticity, transparency, and grace that is unmatched. And in this book, she inspires us to do the same.” B. Why did you feel compelled to write this now? Covid19 is not only a physical pandemic but the unspoken pandemic yet to be addressed in light of Covid-19 is the mental health crisis in the making. Mental Health is still too often the taboo conversation in families and faith communities. Those who suffer from psychiatric mental health symptoms are often left to suffer in silence and alone. I have written Learning To Be as a means of tearing down the walls of alienation and breaking our silence and shining light on the ways that mental health can invite us into transformation and resurrection. C. Why would you recommend someone pick it up? Rarely do we have an opportunity to see through the eyes and intimate experiences of a person diagnosed with a mental health challenge. Here the reader is in essence a fly on the wall so to speak. If you are interested in some insights and long to increase your capacity for compassion this is the book for you. We are all walking a fine line between sanity and diagnosis.
