Coming 'Out of the Cave' of Depression | Pastor Chris Hodges | Ep 79

In 2001, Pastor Chris Hodges started a small core group of believers that would grow to become Church of the Highlands, which now hosts a weekly attendance of over 50,000 people across 21 campuses. But in 1999, Pastor Hodges was depressed. He was in the wrong place doing the wrong thing. His latest book, "Out of the Cave," looks at depression through a biblical lens and shows that life is not about finding pleasure, it's about finding meaning. By sharing his own stories and struggles, Hodges hopes to destigmatize the mental health conversation and show people how to deal with depression in themselves and those they love.
