Depression: Looking Up from the Stubborn Darkness
By: Edward T. Welch
Looking away from despair towards hope can feel risky. What if God doesn’t come through for you? What if you don’t feel instantly better? Instead of offering simple platitudes or unrealistic “cure-all” formulas, Edward T. Welch addresses the complex nature of depression with compassion and insight, applying the rich treasures of the gospel, and giving fresh hope to those who struggle. Originally published as Depression: A Stubborn Darkness – Light for the Path, this new edition is updated with added content. This book gives new hope to those who struggle with depression, and for the people who love them. Dr. Ed Welch writes compassionately on the complex nature of depression and sheds light on the path toward deep, lasting healing.
“Help, hope, focus and visionÉmost of all, a renewed excitement for the wealth of wisdom in the Word of God! That’s how I felt when I finished the last page of Ed Welch’s book. Having wrestled through years of depression when I was first spinal-cord-injured, it was Biblical insights which finally dissipated the fog of my feelings. Thank you, Ed, for providing fine-tuned focus on the Word of God and the principles which give light to our dark path.” ~Joni Eareckson Tada
“I cannot overstate the importance, timeliness, and helpfulness of this book. Ed has given us the wisdom that only comes from a heart shaped by the gospel and a deep compassion for people, generated by the love of Jesus. This is a must read and a must share.” ~Scotty Smith, Senior Pastor, Christ Community Church
