I finally have a biblical way to describe what my clinical depression feels like 🥺

Unless you’ve dealt with severe depression, it’s hard to explain to people that it isn't just "sadness." It’s an actual, suffocating physical weight on your chest. I was reading Exodus 10 today about the 9th plague in Egypt. God didn't just block out the sun like an eclipse. The text literally describes it as "a darkness that can be felt." For three days, the Egyptians couldn't even leave their beds because the darkness was so dense and physically oppressive. That is exactly what a depressive episode feels like. A darkness you can literally feel. It brings me an odd sense of comfort knowing the Bible acknowledges that kind of suffocating, heavy dark. If you are sitting in a darkness that feels heavy today, God sees you in the pitch black. #MentalHealth #ChristianDepression #Exodus #Darkness #HeSeesYou

If you feel guilty for doubting God right now, you really need to read Matthew 11 💔

I've followed Jesus for 40 years, but recently, a tragedy hit my family that made me question everything. I felt so ashamed of my doubts. I thought God was going to turn His back on me. Then I looked at John the Baptist. He literally baptized the Son of God. He heard the voice from heaven! But when John was locked in a filthy dungeon waiting to be beheaded, the silence got to him. He sent his friends to ask Jesus, "Are you really the one, or should we expect someone else?" The greatest prophet had a complete crisis of faith. But Jesus didn't shame him. Jesus gently sent back proof of the miracles, and then turned to the crowd and called John the greatest man born of a woman. God is not offended by your doubts when you are sitting in the dark. He handles our fragile faith with so much grace. #CrisisOfFaith #JohnTheBaptist #GraceInTheDark #ChristianDoubt #HeGetsUs

Be kind to yourself.

I am so done with the "Instagram perfect" Christian aesthetic (Jesus hated it too) 🛑

I was scrolling through social media today, and every Christian influencer is posting their perfect matching outfits, perfect coffee cups, and perfectly curated Bible study photos. It all feels so incredibly fake. I opened Matthew 23, and Jesus goes absolutely scorched-earth on this kind of behavior. He looked at the religious elite with their perfect robes and said, "You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside but on the inside are full of the bones of the dead." What a savage, terrifying insult. Jesus isn't impressed by our polished exteriors if our hearts are full of rot, pride, and greed. He wants our ugly, messy, authentic repentance, not a fake religious PR campaign. I'm taking a break from Christian social media for a while. #AuthenticFaith #Matthew23 #ChurchCulture #FakePerfect #JesusWords
