OVERCOMING DEPRESSION WITH THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT

OVERCOMING DEPRESSION WITH THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT is a book in which the author presents his ideas on how to deal with depression without having to go through its paths. He asserts that it is possible for a disciple of Jesus, someone who believes in God and has faith in the Savior, to be afflicted by this illness.

His thesis is based on the scientifically supported fact that depression is a disease of the psyche, the soul, and that every being with a soul can be affected by it. He demonstrates in detail that emotions are the preferred breeding ground for depression to take hold and from there reach other areas, including the physical.

The author takes us through an analysis of how Elijah, Job, and Jesus himself dealt with depressive moods without sinking into the depths of depression and remaining there. It enlightens us that the virtues of the Fruit of the Spirit are the appropriate remedies for prophylaxis and cure against this evil that plagues our century, without ruling out the need for psychotherapeutic treatment for those affected by it. It reveals that only the spiritual man can achieve this exercise, through spiritual intelligence.

It is an indispensable book! It is well worth reading.
