Some key takeaways from this conversation:
Scott Box on being healthy vs complete healing: "Fight for health, because God will give you health. Even if healing doesn't come, even if healing is the most absurd impossibility, health, in some capacity, is always an option."
Scot Box on mental illness and worshiping God: "What I've recognized is that my mental illness gave me a pathway to understanding worship earlier, or maybe better, than I would have had I...not struggled with mental disorder. It forced my lifestyle to get fixed. It forced a desperation upon Jesus that I never would have had."
Scott Box on being a ministry leader with mental illness: "I used to think that I was too broken to be this type of leader. And then Jesus comes along, and in my pursuit and reflection of him. And he goes: 'Guess what, I got you. This is how you can lead worship, in a way that actually is more akin to the way that I lived my worship, Scott.' This is Jesus going 'I modeled worship by pursuing the Father, by reflecting the Father, in everything."
