Spiritual Depression by Lloyd Jones

Its Causes and Cure

Aimed especially at pastors and serious Christians, this work diagnoses the roots of deep spiritual discouragement—distinguishing natural melancholy from true spiritual depression—and examines causes such as sin, lack of prayer, worldliness, doubt, and poor doctrine. It emphasizes that the remedy is not mere self-help but a return to gospel truths: repentance, faith in Christ, regular Scripture reading, prayer, preaching, and dependence on the Holy Spirit and pastoral care to restore assurance and spiritual vitality.
