Why Christian Men Struggle in Silence with Dr. Oluwole Babatunde
Many Christian men struggle with anxiety, depression, grief, and emotional pain—but remain silent because they believe asking for help is a sign of weakness.
Dr. Oluwole Babatunde is a psychiatrist, physician, author, and Christian who brings together professional experience in mental health with a deeply personal understanding of adversity. After losing his mother at age seven and his father six years later, he had to decide whether those losses would define his future or become part of a greater purpose.
In this conversation, Dr. Babatunde joins Mark Osborne to discuss why men often hide their struggles, how physical and mental health affect one another, and why faith and professional treatment do not have to be in conflict.
Expect to learn why asking for help is an act of strength, how unresolved grief can shape a man’s life, what it means to adapt without surrendering, and how Christian men can approach mental health without shame.
