God's Way Out of Depression cover

The Bible shows us that God has an answer to depression, which is today's most common human disorder in terms of the number of people affected worldwide. Through the healing ministry of Jesus, it's possible to explore the roots of this debilitating disease and then to travel with Him on a journey of freedom. Thankfully, the medical profession is gaining increasing understanding in how to alleviate the symptoms of depression, but only God can bring restoration to the deep spiritual dysfunction in our lives which frequently lies at the heart of medical disorders. This book incorporates testimonies from ten people, with very different life stories, describing their miraculous healing journey out of major depression, and we see that their experiences affirm the keys given to us in the Bible for pursuing God's restoration of His created order in our lives. This book does not advocate a technique for healing but seeks to point the reader towards powerful biblical principles which can open the door to God's way out of depression

As a Christian Psychiatrist, this is one of the best books ever on Depression! It is balanced, complete and not superficial. You have provided a reference for Christian health workers, carers and patients that have been diagnosed or are suffering from depression. It is easy to read and understand, even for someone who doesn't have a clue about medicine. Your examples are well chosen, and I love the way you introduce the persons sharing their story as "our friend". One of my favourite chapters is the one on "Crossroads". I am really impressed! May God bless you and keep His hand over the process of distributing this pearl of a book! Beatriz Benestad; This book is great! David writes with compassion, encouraging the reader to find a genuine hope for both themselves and their future with the Lord. I really believe that God's heart for His people is reflected in this book as His Word, His promises and His truth are delivered alongside the encouragement to be real in facing depression, and what can be the deeper distress behind it. It is as if the Lord's light is shining into the darkness. I would encourage anyone to read it. David includes practical advice not only for those who suffer with depression, but also for those who come alongside them. This is done while, at the same time revealing more of God's heart for His children through testimonies, scriptures, and gentle yet clear teaching. B Earl;
