Depression hits in a much different way than most mental disorders. It can feel as if the world is against you, and there is no hope for it to end. In this episode, Matt and Tim talk about biblical writers and their depression, how they responded to it, and what believers can learn from their stories along with some practical works you can do for yourself or your kids. It's a longer episode, but their prayer is that you would benefit from this deeper dive into the biblical response to depression.
