Depression

As Christians, we need a sober and biblically-based expectation of life. Life is to be enjoyed, but it will not always be enjoyable! Jesus prepared his disciples thoroughly for trials and testing, suffering and persecution. Our God is faithful and comforts us in every trial, so we invite you to come with us in this devotional as we learn to navigate the valleys of life in faith.

God in the Midst of Depression

In their day-to-day life, many Christians struggle with discouragement, disillusionment, or even depression. Sadly, some believers are afraid to be open with others about such emotional battles. This devotional explains how the biblical heroes handled the times of emotional turmoil that they went through. It also tells the believers how to overcome their internal struggles with the help of the Word of God and their church family. 

How Christians Should Deal With Depression 

This 5-day video devotional plan walks you through practical steps to dig out of the mess you find yourself in. God's Word is living and active.

Once you identify the lies that have you in their grip, you will learn practical steps to draw you outward and onward.

Weakness does not disqualify you from inclusion in the kingdom of God—instead, it is your invitation to enter. Our week together of studying God’s Word will also serve as a personal exploration of what it means to be “poor in spirit.”  I believe that sharing vulnerability in a safe place allows communion to happen and hope to grow again. What if weakness is one of our greatest strengths?

Have you ever felt seen but not really known? Or maybe you’ve been completely overlooked — or worse, you were used and then cast aside. Invisibility is one of the loneliest feelings in the world. Hagar could relate to this feeling, but God met her in that painful place. Join us for the next three days as we find hope in the God who sees every tear and every struggle. 


The God Who Sees

This study will look at how God never leaves us or forsakes us. He is with us through all things. 


God Is With You, Always

Those who struggle with mental illness frequently feel isolated and alone. However, God is with us in our suffering. We will examine five Bible characters who struggled with mental illness. We will then consider the new heaven and new earth, where mental illness will be no more.

You Are Not Alone

When it comes to helping people deal with addiction, mental health problems, and suicidal thoughts, one-size-fits-all programs often don’t work. Minister, pastoral care counselor, and recovery activist George A. Wood and coauthor Brit Eaton suggest a community approach that they call the Uncovery—seeing recovery through a grace-laced, gospel lens.
