Overview
Whether it’s anxiety or depression, if you’re a Christian who struggles with mental health, you likely have many questions: How can I understand what’s happening to me? How can I have the hope of the gospel yet struggle with anxiety or depression? Is God okay with me taking medication? How did anxiety and depression even become a problem to begin with? Does anxiety and depression fit into the category of suffering, or the category of sin? Are mental health struggles mostly a spiritual issue, or a physical one? Is going to counseling or a doctor a sign of weakness in my faith? How do I get the right kind of help while staying true to my biblical beliefs? Who can give me an overview of this new, and sometimes dark, terrain?
Written from the perspectives of a practical theologian and a clinical social worker/therapist, Christine Gordon and Hope Blanton team up to give you exactly the answers you need regarding anxiety and depression. By offering you a biblical framework and clinical definitions along the way, this book explores the spiritual, physical, emotional, and relational dimensions of your struggle, giving you the clarity, hope, and information you need to move forward into a brighter future. On top of that, through relatable stories and heartfelt insights, you’ll also receive the compassion and comfort you’ve been looking for, as these authors are not only experts on the issue—they are fellow strugglers too.
Reconciling your faith with your mental health struggles is possible. If you are ready for compassion to meet your fears, explanation to free you from confusion, and hope to light up your view of the future, Hope for the Anxious and Depressed is for you.
