How Jesus Meets You in Depression | Sheila Walsh

What do you do when your faith feels strong on the outside but you're falling apart on the inside? Today we're revisiting one of our most meaningful conversations with author, speaker, and Bible teacher Sheila Walsh. In this deeply personal episode, Haley and Dustin talk with Sheila about depression, childhood trauma, mental health, and the life-changing hope found in Jesus Christ. Sheila shares her powerful story of growing up with deep emotional wounds, pursuing perfection in an effort to earn God's approval, and eventually finding herself in a psychiatric hospital with severe clinical depression. But it was there—in one of the darkest seasons of her life—that she began to discover God's grace, His presence, and the truth that the Good Shepherd knows exactly where to find us. Together they explore prayer, suffering, healing, and what it means to trust God when life doesn't make sense. If you've ever struggled with depression, discouragement, or wondered where God is in your pain, this conversation is a powerful reminder that the Good Shepherd knows exactly where to find you—and that you are never beyond the reach of His love. Subscribe to the podcast and tune in each week as Haley and Dustin share with you what the Bible says about real-life issues with compassion, warmth, and wit. So you have every reason for hope, for every challenge in life. Because hope means everything. Hope Talks is a podcast of the ministry of Hope for the Heart.

Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed.” Psalm 141:2 – “May my prayer be set before you like incense; may the lifting up of my hands be like the evening sacrifice.” Mark 8 :22-25 – “They came to Bethsaida, and some people brought a blind man and begged Jesus to touch him. He took the blind man by the hand and led him outside the village. When he had spit on the man's eyes and put his hands on him, Jesus asked, “Do you see anything?” He looked up and said, “I see people; they look like trees walking around.” Once more Jesus put his hands on the man’s eyes. Then his eyes were opened, his sight was restored, and he saw everything clearly.” John 10:10 – “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.” Galatians 5:1 – “It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.” Revelation 5:8 – “And when he had taken it, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb. Each one had a harp and they were holding golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of God’s people
