Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Depression, stress or anxiety is nothing but a dark shadow and burden which envelopes the soul and swallows happiness. It can even be felt on an individual who has it. This spirit is more spiritual than psychological. We have had people prayed over who were struggling and no medication or therapy was able to help them. I will love you to be comfortable with this truth as we are going to pray and destroy the yoke or burden that is creating depression in your life. For if left unattended it can lead into more serious life threatening cases and illnesses. It is shocking how many illnesses are reported to be stress related and more shocking is the number of deaths that are due to stress related matters. As we approach this demonic spirit, I pray that God will give you wisdom and grace to discern this evil force and to deal with it before it takes over your life. For those who have suffered due to depression, hurt and all related issues get yourself together, I believe God will use this book to restore you and get you back to your destiny and purpose in life.

Yet, as late as 1974, the American Psychiatric Association listed in their diagnostic manual "strong religious belief" as a disorder. Is depression exclusively a chemical imbalance? And as recently as today many pastors in the religious community discourage their parishioners from seeking medical help. Is depression exclusively a spiritual attack? From Depression to Deliverance is a spiritual companion to your doctor's advice demonstrating that depression is an attack on the mind, body and spirit. Thus, in order to win this battle, we have to attack it on all three fronts embracing both the scientific and spiritual communities. You are not alone in this battle. So join us on this pilgrimage from a psychiatrist's office, to the great outdoors with a few church sermons on the way; from mourning to joy, from torment to peace, from darkness into God's wonderful light.

The battle that tested him and his faith at every step and a battle that only a few can conquer. It was a battle with depression. Depression has the power to steal colors from anyone's life and make it black and white. When Willie encountered this beast, he was not in his best form. For him, it was as if he was thrown in a dark well with a dead end. It seemed impossible for him to escape it at that time. He became weak at first, but then he saw the light in that blinding darkness, it was the light of God. He kept following that little light, and soon it became a path for him to escape that dark well. This is the reason why he decided to write this book to help those suffering from depression, for he now knows better how depression can take the life out of a person and only leave a breathing body behind.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You can have peace in a troubled world More people (than we know) worldwide have a mental illness - such as depression, anxiety, fear, schizophrenia, eating disorders, and other addictive behaviors. In my ministry to others, it has remained one of the most challenging situations to handle. The World Health Organization says that it is a leading cause of disability globally. Some common signs of mental or emotional illnesses include: -Constant feeling of sadness. -Confused thinking or reduced ability to concentrate. -Unwarranted fears, worries, or extreme feelings of guilt. -Life-threatening mood changes of highs and lows. -Withdrawal from friends and social activities. -Extreme overtiredness, low energy, or constant difficulty in sleeping. -Removal from reality (delusions), paranoia or illusions. -Inability to cope with day to day problems or stress. -Trouble relating to situations and people. -Alcohol or drug abuse. -Major changes in eating habits -Sex drive changes. -Too much anger, hostility or violence. -Unnatural suicidal thoughts. -Sometimes sufferers experience stomach pain, back pain, headache, or other unexplained aches and pains. Why do people have a mental illness? Medical research does not know precisely what causes mental illness. They suggest it could be a result of genetic factors, environmental exposure (stress, provocative conditions, toxins, alcohol or drugs) or unidentified brain chemical reactions. In this book, Less Panic More Hope, my goal is to speak healing and restoration to your mind. I want to show you that there is hope, and that life has excellent opportunities for you irrespective of what you have gone through. I want to help you identify your fears, worries, anxieties, depressions, and other mental and emotional challenges you have right now, and deal with them with God's word. I want to encourage you to take your discouragements, anxieties, fears, and disappointments to God in prayer and experience His peace that passes understanding.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FEARS. BOOKS ARE WRITTEN ABOUT THEM, AND MOVIES ARE BASED ON THEM. BUT THE BIBLE SAYS WE DON'T HAVE TO LIVE IN FEAR. "Devotions for those with Anxiety Disorders" is an easy-to-read devotional. The mind, body, and spirit are the core of the human being. When one is affected the other two can also be affected. Healing can take place in all three areas. Traditionally, therapy has only focused on the mind in treating disorders. In the 1990's, we focused heavily on the affects long term stress can have on the body. Today, we have begun to focus on the spiritual side of a person's life in the treatment of disorders. This book takes it one step further and focuses on not just the spiritual side, but the religious side. It is based on a Christian concept and it will help to alleviate symptoms while working with the mind and body through the reading of the devotions. Along with the scriptures, practical advice about living with anxiety and living life fully with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), panic attacks, and depression is included. Whether a therapist, family member, or a person with an anxiety disorder, the devotions contained in "Devotions for those with Anxiety Disorders" will provide a welcome relief from daily struggles.

As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness.

Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.
