Can You Pray Depression Away?

What do you do when prayer is not helping your depression but actually making it worse?

For author and speaker Abraham Sculley, answering this question and finding lasting freedom from his mental illness meant rethinking and challenging a lot of the ideas he grew up believing. But this son of Jamaican immigrants knows how to persevere.

Join us as we explore Abraham's transformation into the person he is today — a mental health advocate with a special passion for showing how accessing mental health care doesn't mean going against your faith.
