FREE WEBINAR
Hope in the Valley of Depression
with Lindsay DeBlaay
W ith depression affecting 1 in 10 of us, if you are not struggling in emotional darkness yourself, someone close to you is. And during the holidays, those feelings can intensify.
What’s more, Christians, and especially ministry leaders, can quickly layer depression with guilt and shame. Aren’t we supposed to experience God’s presence and comfort and not struggle with feeling stuck in the valley?
How can we connect with the hope of the gospel, even as we long for deliverance from depression?
In this FREE webinar, Lindsay DeBlaay, Serge’s Senior Director of People Development and a Licensed Professional Counselor, helps us explore:
- What depression is and how to understand it through a biblical lens
- How depression can help us both see the effects of the fall more accurately, but also cause us to misjudge our hope
- How scripture can help us talk to God about His promises and rejoice in our suffering Savior, even as we continue to walk through the valley
If you or someone you know is in the dark and lonely valley of depression and you need help holding onto the hope of the gospel, then this webinar is for you!
