"As a Christian Psychiatrist, this is one of the best books ever on Depression! It is balanced, complete and not superficial. You have provided a reference for Christian health workers, carers and patients that have been diagnosed or are suffering from depression. It is easy to read and understand, even for someone who doesn't have a clue about medicine. Your examples are well chosen, and I love the way you introduce the persons sharing their story as ""our friend"". One of my favourite chapters is the one on ""Crossroads"". I am really impressed! May God bless you and keep His hand over the process of distributing this pearl of a book! Beatriz Benestad; This book is great! David writes with compassion, encouraging the reader to find a genuine hope for both themselves and their future with the Lord. I really believe that God's heart for His people is reflected in this book as His Word, His promises and His truth are delivered alongside the encouragement to be real in facing depression, and what can be the deeper distress behind it. It is as if the Lord's light is shining into the darkness. I would encourage anyone to read it. David includes practical advice not only for those who suffer with depression, but also for those who come alongside them. This is done while, at the same time revealing more of God's heart for His children through testimonies, scriptures, and gentle yet clear teaching. B Earl;"

Author Information

David Cross is Deputy International Director for Ellel Ministries and Regional Director for the Ministry in Western Europe. He graduated from Nottingham University in 1969 and qualified as a chartered civil engineer, leading to a varied working career, which included building roads and bridges in the Highlands of Scotland and, in the early 1980's, overseeing the construction of new town development in the New Territories area of Hong Kong. It was here that a huge personal change of direction occurred when he gave his life to Jesus. Returning to Scotland, David became very active in church life and in leading ski tours in the Cairngorm Mountains. In order to further the Christian healing ministry in the Highlands, as an elder in the Church of Scotland, he and others in the local church made contact with Ellel Ministries in 1991, and two years later David and his wife Denise joined the Ministry at the international headquarters of Ellel Grange, near Lancaster. David and Denise have three children and eight grandchildren, all giving much joy in the midst of very busy lives. Besides the thrill of sharing God's truth through teaching and writing, David loves walking and photography. His authoritative explanation of God's word has brought understanding and healing to many who have been confused and damaged by the ungodly ideologies of today's world. David has written five other books: Soul-Ties, God's Covering, Trapped by Control, The Dangers of Alternative Ways of Healing (with John Berry), the A-Z Guide to the Healing Ministry and What's Wrong with Human Rights?
