Stress and despair are emotional conditions that many deal with every day. Pastors are constantly speaking into this issues in the lives of those in their congregations, as well as being under great stress themselves almost constantly. Add recent years of war, terror, economic downturns and more and it seems like nearly everyone is at the end of their rope. In this two-part series, Dr. Merritt gives practical biblical advice for understanding and handling the stress and despair that can, if unchecked, rule and ruin our lives.
