Spiritual Depression: A practical guide to finding freedom, power, and joy in Christian faith - Softcover

Reseña del editor

Spiritual Depression is one of the great classics of the modern Church and tackles the big question: if Christianity is such ‘good news’ why are its followers often unhappy?

Dr Martyn Lloyd-Jones was possibly the greatest Christian preacher and teacher of the twentieth century. A medical doctor by training, Spiritual Depression draws together his professional understanding of the mind with a profound understanding of Christian teaching and the Bible.

Spiritual Depression diagnoses the causes of the ill feeling that many Christians experience. It prescribes the practical care that is needed to lift people’s spirits and bring them freedom, power and joy. Spiritual health is possible and this book explains how everyone can grasp it for themselves.

Contraportada

CHRISTIANITY PROCLAIMS THE GOOD NEWS. SO WHY ARE CHRISTIANS TOO OFTEN UNHAPPY?

In this great spiritual classic, Dr Martyn Lloyd-Jones shows how defeated Christians can experience victory and fulfilment in their lives. His message is both challenging and uplifting. The best remedy for overcoming doubts, regrets, discouragement and fear of the future is learning to live the Christian life wholeheartedly, with conviction and confidence. Written with deep pastoral concern, this often moving book shows how to find that exuberant joy which only comes through knowing the peace of God.

"The title may have confused or frightened some people...This book is really a mini encyclopaedia on how to know God and to walk with God."
GEORGE VERWER in the foreword

"This is pastoral teaching at its best, founded on biblical doctrine rather than psychology, faith-building rather than 'positive thinking'. I just can't speak too highly of it."
