Depression

Even as you try to walk closely with God and follow Jesus, do you often feel worthless, condemned, or judged?  Do you struggle to pray or read scripture?  Join us in this Reading Plan to consider how to overcome spiritual attack.

Are You Under Spiritual Attack?

Are you battling depression? Do you have pain within you that seems unbearable? Listen to Julie Thomas Ph.D as she tells you a very personal story of her own journey of healing and recovery from depression. 

Depression: Hope Inside Out

Confronting the Inner Critic is a 4-day reflective journey designed to help you slow down, notice, and name the voice that keeps you small — without fighting it or fixing it yet. Through gentle awareness, guided prompts, and faith-anchored truths, you’ll learn to stand in love and see yourself the way your Creator does.

Confronting the Inner Critic

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.

DEPRESSION - PRACTICAL ANSWERS FROM the BIBLE

Through this seven-day devotional adapted from The Promises of God: A New Edition of the Classic Devotional Based on the English Standard Version by Charles Spurgeon, and revised by Tim Chester, reflect on specific promises of God from Scripture that strengthened Spurgeon's own heart in times of severe depression and suffering.


The Promises of God: A 7-Day Devotional

Have you lost your sense of accomplishment or momentum in life? Learn to re-sharpen your “edge” so you can live a life full of God’s power, purpose, and presence. Pastor Bayless Conley helps you figure out exactly where you lost your edge, and how to get it back. God can restore a hunger and zeal for His Word and calling that might otherwise be hopelessly lost. So be restored today!

Regain Your Cutting Edge

Often, the bravest thing you can do is continue to make it through the day, even when you have little hope for tomorrow. Have you ever been there?  The theme of these audio-guided meditations is finding hope over the horizon.  Day 1 will remind you of the anchoring hope of God.  Day 2 considers God overtaking fear.  And Day 3 is finding hope in divine promises.

Hope Over The Horizon

How do you respond to suffering? By suffocating or surviving?  The theme for these guided biblical meditations is suffering. Learning not to be ashamed but confronting your pain and the agony of others with a gentle spirit and kind heart. God heals our misery by His grace through faith in Christ, but also in His timing. I pray these meditations will help you recover in the restorative gaze of God.

Suffering in Silence

The Netflix Original Series  13 Reasons Why  follows the events leading up to and following a teenager's suicide. It focuses on a subject of great concern to our culture, but does so in a way that offers little hope for those dealing with depression or suicidal thoughts. This reading plan shares the encouragement God has provided in His Word for those struggling to find reasons to keep going.
