Join Julie as she talks about the differences between grief, sadness, and depression from a biblical perspective.

First, Julie reminds listeners that emotions are information, not identity, and when we observe our emotions, they help us better understand ourselves. They invite us to ask questions that lead to insight.

Have you ever heard of unrighteous sadness? Listen in and hear what that is and what we are to do with it. It is unrighteous sadness that can open the door to depression, a form of extreme sadness.

While depression can have many causes, it often has a spiritual component. Unlike sadness, depression is not just an emotion. It is a multidimensional experience affecting mind, spirit, and body. It has the marks of demonic influence.

The following verses can encourage us and remind us of our Hope.

Psalm 69, Psalm 88 (David cries out in lament), Psalm102, Psalm143

Lamentations 3: 19-26

James 1: 2-4

2 Corinthians 4:9

Listen in and learn more about what you can do from a biblical perspective.
