It's not wrong to want something that's hard to change. But when change becomes an ultimate desire—when your peace is dependent upon achieving the outcome you want—then life won't seem worth living without it. In depression, that's a danger zone.
– Christine Chappell
Do you know what it’s like to be depressed and want nothing more than to feel better again? Normal? Happy? Alive, even? Join Christine as she explores the painful reality of our present circumstances and the deferred hope that stems from changes we sorely want but don't yet have. How does Psalm 73 speaks into these challenging realities and apply to our experiences of depression? We address these questions and more during this recorded session from the 2023 Midnight Mercies Virtual Summit.
