Truth Fusion Brings Revolutionary Model to Christian Mental Health
1 in 5 adults in the U.S. struggles with mental health issues each year, yet in many faith communities, mental health remains stigmatized, misunderstood, or ignored. The disconnect between Christian faith and modern psychology has left many believers suffering in silence, unsure where to turn for holistic, biblically grounded healing.
Enter Truth Fusion – a pioneering nonprofit merging neuroscience, psychology, epigenetics, and biblical truth to bring a new model of mental health healing to faith communities around the world. After gaining international recognition and impacting lives in Europe and beyond, Truth Fusion has relocated its global headquarters from Portugal to the U.S. to expand its reach and bring its revolutionary model to churches, schools, and organizations worldwide.
“For too long, mental health has been treated as either ‘purely spiritual’ or ‘purely medical’, but the truth is, it’s both,” says James Tillman, Founder of Truth Fusion, Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, and Master of Divinity. “We’re not here to manage symptoms. We’re here to heal at the deepest level, body, mind, and spirit. That’s the fusion. That’s the future of mental health.”
Why This Matters Now: The Church’s Mental Health Crisis
o Depression and anxiety are at an all-time high: In the U.S., 42% of adults report anxiety or depressive symptoms, a rate that has more than tripled in the last decade. (CDC, 2024)
o Faith communities are struggling to respond: 65% of pastors say they feel unprepared to help those with mental health issues in their congregations. (Lifeway Research, 2023)
o Yet, people still turn to faith for answers: More than half of Christians say their church’s stance on mental health affects their willingness to seek help. (Barna, 2023)
Truth Fusion is answering this urgent need, offering faith communities theologically sound, scientifically backed tools to transform lives through deep healing.
More Than a Nonprofit – A Global Movement
Truth Fusion is shattering the false divide between science and faith with evidence-based, spiritually grounded resources available worldwide.
Core Initiatives:
o Global Mental Health Resources – Providing free, research-based tools to help individuals and families navigate challenges like anxiety, depression, trauma, and identity struggles.
o Church & Leader Training – Equipping pastors, schools, and Christian organizations with science-backed, biblically rooted mental health strategies that bring real transformation.
o Workshops & Live Events – Hosting interactive experiences combining cutting-edge neuroscience, psychology, and biblical wisdom.
o International Expansion – Programs available in over 70 countries, ensuring faith-based mental health solutions reach underserved communities worldwide.
“Christians shouldn’t have to choose between their faith and real mental health solutions,” says Cheri Tillman, Co-Founder and Director of Development. “God designed our brains and souls to heal together. We’re proving that faith and science are not opposing forces, they’re God’s truth at work.”
Stories of Transformation: Faith + Science in Action
Truth Fusion’s approach is already changing lives.
