Depression does not take God by surprise. What seems like a crisis to us is an opportunity to Him. Relief starts with an understanding of His viewpoint. This 31-day devotional looks at the topic of depression four ways: common causes; depression's spiritual benefits (there are some ); God's loving rescue; and Bible character overcomers. This book is especially useful for new believers, singles and moms (especially new moms). Besides a short daily reading, it includes: Daily "going deeper" sections for those who want to explore the topic further; a life-altering assignment to complete by the end of the book; links to helpful songs; and online free frameable verse pictures. While it is meant for personal use to complete in one month, it is also appropriate for use in a classroom or small-group setting with a free online leader's guide available on mastertruth.com.
