Reading a book about depression and mental illness isn’t a first choice for someone who suffers from depression herself. Crossing Myself: A Story of Spiritual Rebirth isn’t about darkness, but rather the light of what Greg Garrett sees in community, history, music, and service.

Greg’s voice throughout his story will make you think, will make you laugh, and maybe even reach out to someone to say, “I love you.”

Greg and I chatted for a bit about depression and suicidal thoughts, but also:

* The Matrix

* The Black Panther and Thor

* Martin Luther King, Jr.

* Who gets “space at the table”

* U2

* Zombies

So, basically your everyday conversation about Christian living. Enjoy the episode – then check out Greg’s author page, pick up Crossing Myself, and pre-order his book about the living dead (you know you want to.)
