Depression and the integrated life

Intended to help those who suffer not only from depression but also those plagued by spiritual sadness which afflicts the lives of all of us from time to time. The authors combine their training and experience in psychology and ministry to present a contemporary holistic approach. In the first half of the book, many causes of depression are described; in the remaining chapters and epilogue, the authors present several avenues for the alleviation of depression and sadness. Present throughout the book is the fundamental notion that each person is a unity of body, mind and spirit. What makes this volume is that it successfully includes, with the assistance of Scripture and case histories, the Christian self as a vital resource in one's struggle toward physical, mental and spiritual wholeness. The book is also intended for priests, ministers, pastoral counselors, nurses, social workers and those in the healing ministries of prayer communities.
