Depression Recovery According To The Bible

Depression Recovery According To The Bible explains that there are specific causes for depression and that these reasons can be directly related to what the Bible has to say about this all too common problem. The author defines eleven sinful causes for this condition, such as, hatred, perfectionism, or sex worship.....and eight non-sinful causes that may bring on depression, such as, being a victim, broken dreams, or trying to please everyone. Sinful or non-sinful, Dr. Waterhouse points out that there are "cures" for each one of these causes of depression, all focusing on God as the source, meaning, and satisfaction in life. At the same time, he cautions that a conservative approach to using medication for depression is wise; a rejection of even the possibility of using medication is not.
