A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Three weeks after his birth, Johnny America was abandoned by his biological mother, who handed the infant Johnny, to his parental grandmother at the funeral of his father who had passed away. She then vanished into thin air. There is no substitute to a mothers love, not even for the street smart Johnny. He was to face a tough life of poverty, with love and affection being rare commodities. The substitute mothering he received from his grandmother, although loving and godly, was inadequate. It caused long- term damage to his self esteem, his ability to relate to other people, and overall feelings of security and ability to trust others. This emotional turmoil condemned Johnny to the streets of Cape Town and to live as an unpopular Bergie on the inhospitable slopes of Table Mountain, where he was constantly harassed by the clean-up-squad. He adopted his street family, and together they engaged in petty theft, prostitution and alcohol abuse, resulting in Johnny serving time in the notorious Pollsmoor Prison. While serving one of his many prison sentences, Johnnys friend was killed violently in the strawberry fields, where they were employed as convict labour by correctional services. A notorious ex-prison gang member is convicted for the crime for which Johnny is a state witness. Johnny is scared for his life. His quest to find his mother takes him to Durban, together with the love of his life, Marie. His first encounter with his mother is not the reunion he expected. Her dedication to her gangster husband and her unresolved emotional baggage make it difficult for her to give and receive love. He returns to Cape Town with Marie back to the process of opportunistic survival, to increased risks of exposure to H.i.V-aids And TB, to dwelling in the informal settlements, and finally Redemption. Cyril James is a writer of rare calibre. And he tells a terrific story. Lorraine Richards Editor
