Overview
For those navigating the stormy waters of depression, despair, or mental illness, Christ in the Abyss offers a rare kind of spiritual companionship. In this raw and redemptive book, Jean Neely shares her decades-long journey with mental health challenges and faith, testifying that Christ’s presence isn’t reserved for the healed—but is found in the very heart of our pain. With poetic clarity and unflinching honesty, Neely challenges triumphalist Christian narratives and stigma in the church and offers a vision of grace and hope that holds, even when nothing is resolved. In these pages, you’ll find:
- An alternative to “healing-only” faith narratives that makes room for those whose emotional suffering remains unresolved, affirming that deep faith is possible even in prolonged struggle.
- A weaving together of story, Scripture, and cultural critique that expands our imagination for what faith can look like.
- Reflection questions for readers craving depth over resolution.
