He Restores My Soul: Coming Out of Darkness

By Dr. Claudette C. Owens

Depression, anxiety, suicide, and mental disease in general are at an all-time high. This is a subject I never thought I would discuss or write about. But, life has a way of getting to even the best of us. Over my 20-plus years of being a Pastor's Wife, I took the role seriously and felt discretion was key. So, I never really felt comfortable sharing my innermost feelings with anyone. I wanted to protect my marriage, family, and the church. But I really needed someone outside of myself to help me make sense of all the darkness I felt and the weight I was carrying. Deaths, job loss, concern about my children, trying to meet the expectations of a Pastor's Wife, job stress, unexpected transitions, and losing sight of who I am in Christ left me in a dark place. I read my Bible. I prayed. I fasted. I cried out to God, but I was still in this dark place. With all my spiritual training, I didn't understand why I was not getting better. In this book I want to share a part of my own journey and what I have come to understand about our wounded souls. I am not a psychologist, a licensed therapist, or a licensed counselor. What I am is a Preacher of the Gospel and an over comer of Depression. I share with you out of my own experience and from the Word of God. I pray it will bless you and bring healing.
