    The wife of a California megachurch pastor tragically took her own life last weekend, leaving behind her husband and five kids under the age of 6.

    Many Christians get depressed. In her case as I said early --most likely it was postpartum depression--sometimes depression is chemical and sometimes it is situational. You can easily find many stories in the bible of great men of God who became depressed. Moses, Elijah, Hannah, Solomon, David...

    The wife of a California megachurch pastor tragically took her own life last weekend, leaving behind her husband and five kids under the age of 6.

    I am almost certain her depression was postpartum depression--she was only 28 years old and had just given birth 3-4 months prior to her fifth child. Her husband had mentioned that the depression had 'come out of nowhere' and that she had never been depressed before. Even if she married at 20...

    Thanks, SS for your kind reply! I just had this ridiculous image of empty wall space with nails and me going around moving the pictures so I'd notice them. (: I think you're idea of changing for something new is a good one--newness and change do grab our attention! Blessings, V

    Why do Christians believe in a place of torment called Hell?

    Seoulsearch, I like your cross--God will be handling your problems today. (: Now the problem for me is remembering to LOOK at those things that are in plain site. As an example, I have 4 bible verse pictures hanging in my apt. and they over time have blended into the background. I think I...

    Hi I'm Verdant (my chat name) I live in the San Francisco Bay Area and tentatively sticking my toe in here at 'Christian Chat'. I tried a Christian chat forum many years ago and found it rather odd. Many people didn't seem to really be Christ followers or had strange or misguided ideas about...

    Why do Christians believe in a place of torment called Hell?

    I've just glanced thru this thread. I notice when then there is arguing or accusing (Satan is the great accuser) , then it means a person is coming from their own ideas and not from a place of seeking to glorify God (and there is a difference between accusing and defending the gospel--Paul did...
