I recently had the opportunity to join Curtis Solomon on the Biblical Counseling Coalition's 15:14 Podcast to talk about my book, Midnight Mercies: Walking with God through Depression in Motherhood. During the conversation, we explore questions such as:
• Why did I write Midnight Mercies?
• Why is Midnight Mercies specifically offered to Christian mothers?
• Why is it important to gradually move conversations about depression beyond commiseration to realistic comfort and counsel?
• What is the "painful paradox" of loneliness in depression?
• How might caregivers, counselors, or family members benefit by reading Midnight Mercies?
• Why does Midnight Mercies end on a chapter on the topic of hope?
• What does it mean that grief can sometimes turn "dangerous"? In what ways can sadness turn "dangerous" in depression?
