THE CULTURED SELF: A TRADITIONED APPROACH TO MENTAL HEALTH

You’re invited to Regent's 2023 Evening Public Lecture series! Join us in the chapel or tune in online to explore theology, culture, and much more with this year’s summer faculty.
ABOUT THE LECTURE

In this Evening Public Lecture, registered psychologist and Regent graduate Dr. Edward Ng will critique the construct of mental health and speak to the importance of culture in understanding the origins of psychological difficulties. He will also offer hopeful ways for individuals and communities to become involved in intervention for the purpose of shalom-making in obedience to Christ.
