What happens when a christian man who continues to strive and search for purpose hits rock bottom mentally and spiritually?  

Chris Cipollone, pastor, author and speaker,  shares his story of depression and how he journeyed through his own beliefs, his identity and his christian walk with God as a man.   

We also touch on how should the church handle depression?  A dark and complex road with much hope at the end.
