Depression: The Stubborn Darkness (Part 2)

This is Part 2 of a 4-part talk: Part 1 | Part 3 | Part 4

Depression is a common human experience, but one that is especially resistant to change. This workshop will review ways to partner with depressed people as they go through the change process. It will consider critical biblical themes, current views on depression, and the use of psychiatric medications.

In the second of this four-part talk, Ed Welch discusses a counseling approach with non-Christians and how spiritual warfare impacts depression. He continues with an exploration of the lies we are prone to believe amid depression and truths about God that we can cling to. Welch concludes this section showing how Scripture offers hope even when suffering doesn’t disappear.
