    About this ebook

    We've all felt the sting of mental pain. Some are distressed by their jobs or families; others have suffered from severe mental disorders for their whole lives. Whatever your story, you need to know the perfect peace that comes only by resting in the Lord God. In this booklet, Drs. Barhouse and Boice examine what the Bible says about the mental anguish that we face, and draw from God's Word pastoral comfort for the suffering.

In my counseling, I have come across people who have been troubled by similar depressions, who could have said, as David does in verse 6,
