In this episode of The Greater Heritage podcast we review Spiritual Depression: Its Causes and Cure by Martyn Lloyd-Jones and published by William B. Eerdmans Publishing Company.
Jesus said “I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” (Jn. 10:10 KJV) Yet many Christians do not enjoy the abundant life that Jesus promised. Rather, many struggle with spiritual depression.
In this classic work Martyn Lloyd-Jones uncovers the root causes of spiritual depression and presents cures to overcome it. He points out that much spiritual depression is caused by an incomplete understanding of scripture and core doctrinal truths, resulting in an imbalanced or false view of the Christian life. Other topics addressed are how personality, faith, spiritual warfare and Christian living tie into spiritual depression.
Lloyd-Jones paints a wonderfully challenging yet encouraging guide on how to overcome spiritual depression and live abundantly in Jesus Christ.
