This is a compassionate and biblically rich guide for Christians facing the storms of mental anguish. Garriott weaves together personal experience, historical insight, and timeless truths from Scripture to show that anxiety and depression are not signs of weak faith, but part of the complex reality of living in a fallen world. Drawing from the lives of Christian giants like John Bunyan, Martin Luther, John Owen, William Cowper, and Charles Spurgeon—each of whom battled their own “dark nights of the soul”—Garriott demonstrates that even the greatest saints have walked this difficult path.
Thy Deepest Distress offers hope, perspective, and tools for living faithfully amid suffering. God’s providence, Christ’s sympathy, and the hope of future glory can transform even the deepest distress into an opportunity for spiritual growth and deeper communion with God. With helpful practical appendices on prayer and daily practices.
