Wildfire: Mission and Madness tells the story of Laura Ruth-her life, work, and so-called mental illness, schizoaffective disorder. Here Laura defines her own mental illness and shares what it’s like to live with voices. She also addresses what she believes to be key issues: learning to live with a severe and enduring mental illness; the recovery process; and what those with this form of illness face, be it experiences along their journey or the false beliefs, attitudes, and mysteries surrounding mental illness.
Follow Laura as she relates the high and lows in her relationships and her work through stories from the mission field during her twenty years of international travels serving others in times of disaster; and share in her exploration of the interface between mental health and spirituality.
