Pastor Phill takes us on a journey through the deceptive lie of isolation, revealing how this notion affects countless individuals in our faith community. Drawing from the story of Elijah, who fled to the wilderness after his triumphant victory on Mount Carmel, he illustrates how even the mightiest of God’s messengers faced profound depression and anxiety. Phill shares his own battles in ministry, reminding us that it is okay to not be okay. He emphasizes the need for rest, honest expression of frustrations, and the assurance that we are never alone in our struggles. Seek to build community where you can admit hardships and lean on one another as you lean on God. Reach out, seek help, and embrace shared humanity.
