  • How to Process Grief and Depression with Hope in God | Mark Vroegop & Christine Chappell
    Are you wrestling with grief, depression, or anxiety? In this powerful FamilyLife Today episode, hosts Dave and Ann Wilson sit down with pastor and author Mark Vroegop (”Dark Clouds, Deep Mercy”) and biblical counselor Christine Chappell (“Midnight Mercies: Walking with God Through Depression in Motherhood”) to explore the biblical practice of lament. Discover how lament is more than just complaint – it’s a prayer language that moves you towards deeper trust in God, even in the midst of profound sorrow.
