Is Depression a Lack of Faith? (Mental Health & Faith)

Soul Talks With Bill & Kristi Gaultiere

Depression makes us feel like we are walking around in a heavy darkness that will never get better. Judging our faith—or receiving criticism from others—only worsens the suffocating pit of sadness and grief. Thankfully, our Good Shepherd knows how to lead us through the darkest valleys.

Tune in for this episode of Soul Talks as Bill and Kristi unpackage the true meaning of faith—authentic trust in Jesus that grows as you persevere through trials by walking with him. You’ll learn how tools like honesty, empathy, spiritual friendship, and sometimes therapy help you work through depression and renew your confidence in Christ.
