On Sunday, Rick and Kay Warren spoke to Saddleback for the first time since their son took his own life in April. Their messages are almost 90-minutes long and include some heart-rending material. But they also include how they’ve been making it through. You can listen to the audio at the link below. Above are some excerpts from CNN’s coverage of the service.
“How to Get through What You’re Going Through” – Saddleback Church (July 28, 2013)

Can anyone tell me what’s the most common SBC doctrine on suicide?

Chris,
I’m not certain of an SBC doctrine on suicide, there are others more equipped to answer that, but these were the first 2 Google results when I searched “Southern Baptist Convention suicide.”

It seems that in the most recent convention in Houston the issue of mental illness and suicide was addressed.
