Title: **Jesus on the Margins: How God Uses the Church To Bring Us Through Isolation into Fellowship with Him and Each Other.
Whether we are talking about depression or anxiety, OCD or ADHD, mental illness almost always brings isolation and loneliness. God does not want us to be alone, and He uses the church to draw us closer to Him and to each other.
BIO: Dr. Todd A. Peperkorn, STM, DMin**, is Assistant Professor of Pastoral Ministry and Missions at Concordia Theological Seminary in Fort Wayne, Indiana. He also serves as Vice President of Spiritual Formation and Director of Vicarage (internship). A Lutheran pastor since 1997, he served congregations in Wisconsin and Northern California before joining the seminary faculty in 2021. He is the author of the book, I Trust When Dark My Road: A Lutheran View of Depression, and was also one of the founding pastors of Higher Things.
