Summary

What does the Bible really say about depression, fear, and suicidal thoughts? Pastor Joby Martin and Rebecca Maxwell tackle the raw and often-avoided conversation about mental health. From Elijah’s crash after victory to the stigma around counseling, they reveal how the enemy wages war on the mind and why taking thoughts captive and running toward God changes everything. You’ll hear honest stories of despair, practical help for counseling, and why your words carry a life-or-death power in your home. When fear and shame attack, will you choose to stay silent, or speak life and run to Jesus? 👉 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.
