Rocks Piles and Your Depression (Part 2) | Embracing Grace
Knowing why we're depressed doesn't immediately remove the pain of depression. For many, depression can linger far longer than we expect it to, and certainly much longer than we'd prefer. So as we're putting off the sin that has led to things like hopelessness, despair, or fear... what do we do about those very real feelings that may linger?This episode begins a short "mini series" that will discuss a few ways we can respond to our depression in a way that is biblically faithful, true, and Christ-oriented. For starters... let's discuss how looking at rocks can help.

Depression, Suicide, and Suffering (Part 1) | Embracing Grace #7
It's not surprising that those suffering from chronic pain are more likely to experience depression and thoughts of suicide. As Christians, how are we supposed to think about these things? Should we understand depression differently than the world does? Does the Bible offer any hope, or are we merely victims of biology? This episode is an honest, even painful, look at how I've walked through depression and suicidal thoughts in my life, and how God's word can guide us into not only understanding why we experience these things, but what we can do about them.
