“My dad was killed when I was 6” | A testimony of healing from depression and anxiety

from God's Stories · host Seen and Loved Studios

When Melvin was just six years old, his dad was shot and killed. Though he didn’t fully understand it at the time, the weight of that loss followed him into adulthood. As he grew older, Melvin struggled with deep depression, anxiety, and the pain of growing up without his father—until he reached a breaking point and chose to surrender his life to God. After accepting Christ, Melvin experienced a freedom he never knew was possible. This is a powerful story of healing, identity, and hope. If you’ve struggled with depression, anxiety, or heartache, we pray this testimony encourages you.
