    Hmm, if someone confides in you about mental problem is the pastor or church the right person/place to recommend? The PSYCHATRIC is the right place to recommend. Too much IGNORANCE will give us this type of results. No church ...

    pastor? for what? no wonder a lot of people die a foolish death when medical help is needed and same time pray for healing.

  • king 7 years ago

    A lot of you are posting stupid comments here, reason and know that as much as the doctor counsels, the pastor through the word of God counsels better. in fact that would have been the best solution.

    I think you need to respect people's thoughts than insulting . What we are saying is when you are not well seek the medical professionals and then after go for your prayers

    Pastors have a role to play. They provide counselling and spiritual and social support. But if you sre really depressed, that may not be enough. you need to be treated by a doctor. I agree with Orlando

    We must advice people with such challenges to seek medical treatment.

  • Alex London 7 years ago

    She died because she confided in you. First, you did not follow up to see she got help she needed, and she was given a bad advice. Why a pastor?

  • Kofi wise 7 years ago

    Kwaku, I honestly think you should be courteous and respect the Faith of people. The fact that there are some fake men of God around doesn't change the fact that there are men who are called and being used by God. The fact th ...

    Sorry the lady sought help/counsel from the wrong person. May the Good Lord grant her eternal peace.

  • mytake 7 years ago

    The beliefs system in our society... Seeing a pastor is not a bad idea as long as that is her belief. In fact her mistake was not following up on her.

  • yiddana@yahoo.com 7 years ago

    Mr. Trader,
    Too littel too late. It tells how little you think of your neigbors. You're one of the selfcentered members of the larger society.

  • Kwame 7 years ago

    It's an embarrassment to read people's comments on this platform. The depiction of arrogance, lack of thoughtful responses, and the use of indecent language shows why our country and livelihoods remain unquestionably, a puzz ...

    School counseling must be taken seriously to lower this type of behavior in our schools. Counselors are very well equipped to help with most of these mental illnesses not the so called pastors who claim every negative behavio ...
