(Taken from article in "Christian Leader" magazine, Jan 2009, by David Bruce Rose and Amy Stone. Read the full article here)

1. We can communicate with messages of love, hope, and acceptance in sermons, small groups and through prayer.

2. We can be a resource for members who need the expertise of professional helpers.

3. We must consider the ways that depression may have affected our own lives, whether in ourselves or in our families.

Most churches are not doing what they should to protect their leaders. Leaders should be aware that being on the frontline of the battle can wear out defenses that can prevent a major fall. It can happen to you! Faithful Celebration can be a support for you during a time of struggle. Contact us. We are here to help.
