GOD, you’re my last chance of the day. I spend the night on my knees before you. Put me on your salvation agenda; take notes on the trouble I’m in. I’ve had my fill of trouble; I’m camped on the edge of hell. I’m written off as a lost cause, one more statistic, a hopeless case. Abandoned as already dead, one more body in a stack of corpses, And not so much as a gravestone— I’m a black hole in oblivion. You’ve dropped me into a bottomless pit, sunk me in a pitch-black abyss. I’m battered senseless by your rage, relentlessly pounded by your waves of anger. You turned my friends against me, made me horrible to them. I’m caught in a maze and can’t find my way out, blinded by tears of pain and frustration.

Why do bad things happen to good people? Why there is so much suffering in life? When life feels unfair, and the world feels broken, you need to know there’s a God who understands and wants to restore all things. In this plan, you will learn how grieving, hoping, and gratitude can help you make sense of your suffering.
You sincerely love God, but you are lost when faced with people whose only answer to your questions is "Pray more. Trust the Lord. Read your Bible more..." Do not despair! Yes, a Christian can be depressed. The Bible gives us many examples, explains the causes, and offers us very real and practical solutions to get us out of it.
None of us is exempt from loss. We lose what we expected, what we believed, our sense of security or identity. We lose those we love. What do we do with the disruption, disorientation, and devastation of loss? How do we survive the questions about God that happen in dark nights of the soul? In this five-day Bible study, you’ll discover raw, fought-for spiritual wisdom and hope in Christ.
