The thoughts you have when you're depressed come from the devil. And the good news for you is that the devil is a liar.Do you feel weighed down all the time? Perhaps, although you are a Christian and know you're going to heaven, your spiritual life seems mediocre at best. You know the Bible says to rejoice always, and you'd like to be living joyfully, but you just don't know how.In this sequel to How to Be Free from Bitterness, Jim Wilson returns to talk about how to deal with (and get rid of) depression, feelings of guilt, and problems with self-esteem. Many Christians feel like they are enslaved these sins, like there is no way out. But this is not true. The truth is that Christ has freed us from the penalty of sin and the power of sin. If you are a Christian, you are already free. Depression, guilt, low self-esteem-whatever your problem is, it can be put to death. "And you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free" (John 8:32).

Africa was their home. Could they ever go back? Physical weakness coupled with civil unrest in the Ivory Coast had extended a six-month furlough to several years and threatened to derail the Leidenfrosts' plans to return to their beloved Africa and continue mission work with the Bakwé people. But now they were finally going home to their village...or so they thought. "On top of all this, a subtle grief over the loss of Africa continued to grip my heart. In my dismal state, I felt the clouds part and God's presence come down to touch His child. God saw the pain, the loneliness, the need, and was telling me that I was not forgotten. It was too easy to focus on my troubles. I needed to remember that His love is stronger, more real, than the pain I was suffering at that moment. Was I going to focus on His love, or on the pain?" Join Lisa Leidenfrost as she walks through trial after trial and learns to keep her eyes on God, whom she finds by her side through it all. This book is especially recommended for anyone experiencing a long-term health challenge or other hardship with an uncertain outcome.
