The Hole of Depression: On-Air Counseling with Louie Giglio

Over the next few weeks I'll be having raw, open, and honest conversations with some of the top Christian leaders and teachers, asking them: Are YOU really ok?  This series of on-air counseling sessions with some of the most influential teachers and leaders in the Church, is leading up to the one-year anniversary of my book, Are You Really OK?, challenging each and every one of us to get real about how we're really doing mentally and emotionally. It takes courageous people to openly and publicly talk about their journey with mental and emotional health, but these are the exact conversations that begin taking down the stigma, paving the way for us to truly get real about how we're doing as Christians. Today's session is with Louie Giglio. Louie is a well-known pastor of Passion City Church and founder of the popular Passion Conference - who found himself at a point of "complete wipe out". He found himself in the hole of depression - something that he was never aware of before. He woke up in the middle of the night thinking this would be the last night of his life. The overflow of the stressors in his life took him out of commission for 4 months, causing a physical and mental breakdown. Louie had to really come to terms with what was happening in his body and mind, and learn what it means to take care of himself from the inside-out. Be sure to listen to the end where I give a summary of our talk, as well as ways you can apply it to your own journey of getting healthy from the inside out and asking - Are YOU really OK? So sit back, and take in this vulnerable conversation with Anthony on the Are You Really OK? Podcast Series a part of the Love + Relationships Podcast with Debra Fileta.  Now it's your turn.
