Great book for teens with depression and parents!

Great book, Neil Anderson is a fantastic author! This book is terrific for parents who are dealing with a teen with depression, and for teens.

For every Christian teen who struggles with depression

The moment I saw this book, it went into my shopping cart. I was not disappointed. Neil Anderson's insights on Christian identity have been life-changing for me, and this book was full of great, Bible-based, ideas for conquering depression.I especially loved his balanced viewpoint on treatment for depression. He defines it well as an emotional disorder (with a self-test if you didn't know already you were depressed)and says that the causes are not solely physical, or psychological, or spiritual, but all at once. This isn't another book that tells you to throw your medication in the trash and have more faith-- it explains how you can heal, physically, mentally, and spiritually.I do, however, have two small gripes. One is that, although it is made clear that healing from depression is often a gradual process, most of the stories in this book involve miraculous and instant turnarounds. Although it is possible, I doubt that is the experience of the majority of believers, and it makes the rest of us who struggle feel left out. The other gripe I have is that for the number of times the Steps to Freedom in Christ are referenced in the book, they really need to be included in the book itself. I found them in The Bondage Breaker Youth Edition, but for those people who pick up this book as their first introduction to Neil Anderson's ministry, they need to be there. Overall, though, I would recommend this book to pretty much every teen and youth leader out there.
