Jesus and Your Mental Health - Elijah: Wk 6
Everyone says they’re “fine”—but what if you’re not? Depression. Fear. Suicide. These are real battles, and the Bible doesn’t shy away from them. In 1 Kings 19, Elijah goes from calling fire down from heaven to collapsing under despair. Pastor Joby Martin and guest Rebecca Maxwell cut through the silence to confront the mental health crisis head-on. You’ll hear raw truth, why the enemy attacks your mind, and how Jesus meets you in the darkest valleys. The question is—will you keep pretending, or will you fight back with the truth of God’s Word? 👉 Take Your Next Step: If you’re walking through a hard season, our Care Ministry would be honored to pray with you, connect you with trusted counselors, and walk alongside you toward hope in Christ. https://coe22.com/care/ ✨ Special Guest: Rebecca Maxwell, LMFT, combines 15 years of ministry experience with clinical counseling to bring biblically grounded mental health care to Jacksonville.
