While languishing in the desert of depression, devout Christian Shannon Martindale assumed her complete healing would be the result of her faith. Exercising the principles offered by scripture which previously sustained her through the challenges of divorce, single-parenting, family deaths, remarriage, and infertility, she entered the valley of sorrow, searching for spiritual replenishment, yet still remaining unhealed. Guidance finally came by discovering the origin of her disorder physiologically residing in an over-sensitive nervous system. Through a psychiatrist who combined Christian therapy with an international self-help organization emphasizing the essential necessity of balance, today she maintains her mental, emotional and spiritual health by avoiding extremes. She now leads a normal life, integrating Christianity and psychology in this personal account of her successful recovery, offered for all who have walked the path of uncertainty, frequently experienced by depressed Christians.
