I loved this interview by @sinbach on the Back to Jerusalem podcast, about struggling with mental health issues as a Christian. It's so common, but unfortunately many don't get proper help in the Christian community, because there is a lack of understanding. In addition one might be blamed for unconfessed sins, disobedience or other things. Sometimes it's just about brain chemistry, or living in this fallen world with all of its challenges or childhood traumas. When it comes to the brain and physiological reasons for depression (not spiritual or psychological, that can be the case), it's a reality for instance because of lack of light and vitamin D, as here in the Nordic countries. It's called SAD, seasonal affective disorder. On the latitude where I live we have too little light and sunshine for 6 months, both for the skin to produce vit D, and for the brain chemistry to function well thanks to the light that passes through the eyes (yes, this is science).

My grandfather recently passed away and it's been so nice to go back through old photos and old memories. For 40 years he would walk up to the local hospital every Tuesday and sit and pray with the sick people who had no visitors. Almost nobody knew he did this, but he served God humbly and obeyed Him quietly. There is no greater joy than knowing he is now experiencing the hope of salvation ❤️

Just booked my hotel for next week's BTJ conference! @sinbach See you in Royce City next Friday.
