Publisher's Summary

Where is God in the struggle? Looking away from despair toward hope can feel risky. What if God doesn't come through for you? What if you don't feel instantly better? Instead of offering simple platitudes or unrealistic cure-all formulas, Edward T. Welch addresses the complex nature of depression with compassion and insight, applying the rich treasures of the Christian gospel, and giving fresh hope to those who struggle.

Depression can be a crippling mental health issue, but with the faith in God, new hope can be discovered and a path to becoming a healthy happy Christian again can be found.

Originally published as Depression: A Stubborn Darkness Light for the Path, this new edition is updated with added content.

Biblical Counselling for Depression & Anxiety

The narrator’s voice is pleasant; he doesn’t speak too slow or too fast and his tone and inflection keep the listener engaged. Ed Welch has some great videos on YouTube, but this is my first time diving into one of his books. This book is full of hope for those suffering with depression. For counsellors, there are many scripture references and practical strategies to guide and assist when walking with someone through depression. The last thing I will add is that Welch has a balanced approach to medications and counselling. For me, I think I’m going to pick up a hard copy of this book and I would really encourage Christian leaders to read this book also.
