Depression

Depression can cause undo suffering, but there is help.

David Franks writes:

“No dramatic aspect of life, and certainly not depression, can be adequately accounted for without the Christian revelation of Christ. … There is a powerful spiritual reality at play, but the insinuation the sufferer is somehow at fault gets things exactly backward; it is the innocence of the depressed one that is the key. This book descends into crucial details about mental illness, but even more impressively descends into the mystery of this, as of all, suffering.”
