About the Book
Suicide has been problematic for centuries. Suicide ideation is a stage where a person experiencing extreme stress feels there is no way out of the pain (emotional, mental, physical, psychological and spiritual) and decide to kill themselves.
You can be the crisis interventionist someone needs.
God has demonstrated the greatest act of crisis, intervention through Jesus Christ our Savior. How? Through kindness. It was recorded in the Bible that his kindness leads to a mindset change. God calls each one of us to become a crisis interventionist. The BE KIND Model Workshop is a game changer in how to intervene through dialogue by thinking 3 Charlie's,
2 Mnemonics, and 1 solution. The Think 3-2-1 Strategy provides various approaches to deescalate someone in crisis, even to the most extreme form of crisis suicide ideation. When we can effectively mobilize many to become effective crisis interventionists, then may we see the numbers of suicide decrease.
