Joel Virgo has started what is scheduled to be a six-part series on God and depression (from Psalms 42 and 43) on The Resurgence blog.
His introduction from the part one:
"The book of Psalms gives us a chance to look closely at the biblical way of relating to God in the real world of joy, frustration, excitement, setback, delay, delight, injustice, disappointment, and shame.
"I have learned a lot from preaching on Psalm 42 and 43, as they throw a lot of light on the theme of depression. Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones preached a series of messages [24 total] on this subject back in the 1950’s that was later published as the book, Spiritual Depression. This book quickly became one of the biggest selling Christian books of the century, revealing the importance of teaching on depression."
