An Eclipse of the Soul: A Christian Resource on Dealing with Suicide by Helen Kooiman Hosier epub fb2 djvu

The evangelical church has often held the topics of depression and suicide at arms length. Considering the sobering statistics of successful suicide attempts, this theological navet and lack of vision is a double blow for the suicidal and their loved ones. Author Helen Kooiman Hosier says this needs to change. In An Eclipse of the Soul, she provides readers with helpful resources and calls the church to take greater care of this growing concern. For anyone who has contemplated or attempted suicide and for those who love them, Hosier's research and personal accounts of depression are compassionate and comprehensive.
