Should people who are really depressed or who have serious anxiety problems try psychotherapy or anti-anxiety medications?
Each person has to be led by God for their own lives. I don’t have any problem at all with going to the doctor [or] with taking medicine–I do both when I need to. But even if we go to the doctor or take medicine, we still have to trust God and lean on God to work through that avenue to help us. Jesus said in John 15, “Apart from me, you can do nothing.” I happen to be a person that absolutely 100% believes that. Just being a positive thinker might help me, but putting my trust in God and asking him to help me think right thoughts, I’m going to get a lot more results than trying to do it on my own. Could you talk about your Stand Up and Be Counted initiative, which calls for Christians to fight ungodliness in the government and the media? Over the last number of years, ungodly people are trying to take God out of everything, a little bit at a time, whether that’s taking “In God We Trust” off the wall or prayer out of the schools or “One Nation Under God” out of the Pledge of Allegiance
