MAITLAND, FL— Life is already difficult enough when you’re dealing with bipolar disorder. Now imagine that you are seeking inspiration from a Christian perspective, but there is nothing available. The new book by Christy Nottingham, Be Still and Know: A Calm For Those With Bipolar Disorder ($12.99, paperback, 9781628710458; $6.99, e-book, 9781628710465) fulfills the need by providing God’s voice and His love during this time of vulnerability.

“I want the reader to come away with the realization that they are not alone in this illness and that they are loved by God,” states the author. “…[My book] relates to those that struggle with bipolar [disorder] in a very personal and encouraging manner.”

Christy Nottingham was diagnosed with bipolar disorder in 2000. When first diagnosed, she looked for encouragement from Christian sources and found nothing. She felt a great desire to provide something for the person searching for Christian encouragement. Furthermore, the author worked at a long-term psychiatric clinic from 1999 to 2011 as a team leader, where she provided counseling, facilitated and taught groups, as well as put together treatment plans.
