I’m Christian and I Struggle with Depression

What does it mean to follow Jesus and still struggle with depression? In this episode of Jesus & Psychology, we unpack the tension between faith and mental health—challenging the idea that being a Christian should automatically eliminate depression. We explore what depression actually is from a clinical perspective, including diagnostic criteria and biological factors like neurotransmitters, the HPA axis, genetics, and environmental stressors. We also examine the spiritual dimension—how the fall of humanity, the tension between body, soul, and spirit, and the process of sanctification all shape the human experience. Through Scripture, we see that even those who deeply loved God experienced profound despair, revealing their humanity. This episode also walks through practical pathways toward healing. Tune in as we bring clarity, compassion, and truth to a conversation the body of Christ needs to have.

The Psychology of Deliverance

In this second episode of Jesus & Psychology, we explore deliverance through both a spiritual and psychological lens. This conversation unpacks the psychology of deliverance—how patterns of thinking, trauma, conditioning, and habit formation can influence the strongholds we experience in our lives. While spiritual freedom is central to the Christian faith, lasting transformation often also involves confronting underlying habits and developing new patterns of thought and behavior. This episode invites us to think more deeply about liberation—not just as a moment, but as a process that involves spiritual surrender, psychological insight, and intentional formation. Freedom in Christ is real and understanding the mind can help us walk it out.

The Origin | LIVE Recording

Recorded live at the launch of Jesus & Psychology, this special edition episode shares the story behind how this podcast came to be. In “The Origin,” I walk through my personal journey — from sinner to justified, and now living in the ongoing process of sanctification — and how that transformation shaped both my faith and my understanding of psychology. Sanctification is a process — a daily commitment to renewal, and neuroplasticity reveals that renewal is part of the human brain’s design. We also dive into a live Q&A with the audience, addressing questions about faith, therapy, growth, obedience, and more. This episode lays the foundation for what Jesus & Psychology is all about: Christ-centered faith with psychological insight. Welcome to the beginning.
