Listen "Is depression genetic?"

Episode Synopsis

This week I will begin to discuss depression.  The church doesn't often speak about depression because so many in the church suffer with the symptoms.  Afraid to offend anyone it has become one of the "scared cows" of the church.  Within the Church there is an unwritten understanding, "real christian don't suffer with depression."  
I will address this idea and many others, by exploring the ways we think about depression.  The  field of psychology is beginning to address how they think about depression and what truths have been overlooked.  I will reference the book: Lost connections by Johann Hari.  I challenge you to listen along and see if your opinions might shift.
