Is it possible for Christians to struggle with depression? This question is at the heart of a thought-provoking episode of the Strong Tower Mental Health podcast, hosted by licensed marriage and family therapist Heidi Mortenson. In this episode, Heidi dives into the complexities of depression among Christians, addressing the often-controversial views within different church communities. Some believe that being a Christian means you can't be depressed, while others acknowledge that faith doesn't make one immune to mental health struggles.
Heidi, along with guest Lambers Fisher, breaks down these perspectives and offers a compassionate look at what it means to experience depression as a person of faith. They discuss various forms of depression, how to recognize it in yourself, and the importance of seeking help without feeling like you're failing in your faith. With practical advice and heartfelt encouragement, they explore six ways to find hope and freedom from depression.
Whether it's through spending time with God or understanding the role of discernment and deliverance, this episode provides valuable insights for anyone grappling with these issues. Tune in to learn how to navigate the tough questions and find a path toward healing.
