New Book Offers Faith-Based Approach to Addressing Rising Mental Health Challenges

As mental health challenges continue to escalate across the United States, a new book offers a faith-based approach to addressing the persistent anxiety and depression affecting millions of Americans. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 12.1 percent of U.S. adults regularly experience feelings of anxiety, and 4.8 percent report regular feelings of depression, with both rates showing significant growth over the past decade.

Dr. Walter Malone Jr. addresses this growing struggle in his new book, "Tailored to Win: Aligning Your Life with God's Plan," which releases November 18, 2025, through The Church Online, LLC, Publishing Division. The book represents a response to the increasing number of Americans questioning how to overcome anxiety and depression, discover their life's purpose, move past failures, and find lasting hope.

Drawing from more than four decades of pastoral ministry and scriptural foundations, Dr. Malone emphasizes that genuine victory begins in the mind and takes root through a relationship with God. The book builds on practical principles including developing a disciplined mindset, embracing God's vision, maintaining authenticity, persevering through difficulty, and making space for rest and renewal.

"Tailored to Win is not a book about success or having a positive outlook on life, and it doesn't offer criteria for self-actualization," Dr. Malone explained. "Instead, Tailored to Win offers a biblical foundation and practical application for how to live a completely fulfilled and empowered life because we understand that we are spiritually synchronized with the purpose and plan God has designed for each of us!"

Through real-life stories, scriptural teaching, and pastoral wisdom, the book aims to help readers transition from weariness to spiritual strength. It provides a roadmap for individuals seeking to live with confidence, peace, and direction during difficult or uncertain circumstances, addressing the core questions many Americans face regarding mental wellness and life purpose.

The book will be available for purchase through Amazon.com, making it accessible to readers nationwide. The Church Online, LLC Publishing Division, based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, partners with pastors, authors, and ministries to produce resources that communicate timeless biblical truth through contemporary media platforms, providing comprehensive editorial, design, and distribution support for faith-based authors and leaders.

This publication comes at a critical time when mental health professionals and faith communities alike are seeking effective approaches to address the rising rates of anxiety and depression documented by health authorities. The integration of spiritual principles with practical life application offers an alternative perspective for those seeking holistic approaches to mental and emotional well-being.
