In this first episode of a three-part series, we open an honest and grace-filled conversation about suicide, despair, and the hope that can still be found in God. Together, we explore the difference between wanting to die and simply wanting to stop emotional pain—a distinction that can save lives.
We’ll discuss recent statistics on suicide, uncover myths and misconceptions, and look at what Scripture shows us about dark emotions and despair. We will see that God’s Word does not shy away from human pain—but it always points us toward hope and redemption.
Whether you’re struggling personally or want to support others, this conversation will equip you with wisdom, empathy, and spiritual grounding.
📞 If you or someone you love is in crisis, please call or text 988 (Suicide and Crisis Lifeline).
