In part two of our sermon series, we're diving into one of the most honest and necessary conversations the church can have: Does God really love me when I'm depressed and anxious? If you've ever felt the crushing weight of depression or the unshakable grip of anxiety, you know how hard it can be to believe that God hasn't walked away. Maybe you've asked yourself, If I were stronger in faith, I wouldn't feel this way… right? This message will break through the lies depression and anxiety whisper, replacing them with the unshakable truth of God's character and His unwavering love for you—no matter what you feel.

Through real-life biblical examples like Elijah, David, Job, Jeremiah, and even Jesus, we'll see that God is not repelled by our pain—He meets us in it. We'll explore why so many believers mistake emotional numbness for spiritual distance, and how guilt and shame distort the truth of God's compassion. This isn't a sermon filled with pat answers or empty platitudes. It's an invitation to be honest with God, anchor your identity in Christ, lean into community, seek help without shame, and speak truth over your soul—practical steps rooted in Scripture that can help you experience His love in the darkest valleys.

Whether you're in the thick of depression and anxiety yourself or you love someone who is, this message will equip you to see God's heart more clearly and respond with compassion instead of condemnation. We'll be reminded that feelings are not the foundation of faith—God's unchanging nature is. If you've been looking for hope, clarity, and a fresh reminder that you are never beyond the reach of His love, this sermon is for you. Remember, The absence of feeling is not the absence of God. His love is steady, even when your heart is shaky.
