We spend time in the Low because we're human, not because we're broken.
In the Low is a collection of contemplative words and images for seasons of depression. It is a book designed to meet you where you are and sit with you there the way God does: intentionally and without judgment.
***
For many of us, the question isn't whether or not we will enter into depression but how to be there when we do. In those low places, we experience disconnection from others, from a meaningful life, and from God, and it can be difficult to know what to think or pray. This is where art and the honest prayers of others can help us name what we're experiencing so we know we're not alone.
In the Low is designed to meet you in the dark and linger there with you as you sit under the weight of depression or despair. Instead of shaming you for how you feel, minimizing your pain, or suggesting quick fixes, Justin McRoberts and Scott Erickson offer you prayers in language and imagery that can help you be honest and vulnerable with yourself and with God.
Featuring poetic prayers for deeper relationships, healing from trauma, a hopeful future, and more, In the Low meets you where you are in your journey and calls you deeper into the heart of God--who is not afraid of the dark.
"In the Low has a permanent spot on my bookshelf. I'm grateful for the unhurried connection Scott and Justin offer to us through their words, images, and humanity. This one is a must-read for anyone in any kind of low."--Emily P. Freeman, New York Times bestselling author of How to Walk into a Room
"This book is not a cure, nor a map to a brighter shore, but a quiet companion for the journey. It shines a subtle light--not to banish the dark but to illuminate it, revealing the fragile beauty in being."--David Gungor, The Brilliance
"We humans distract ourselves from ourselves in innumerable ways, not least with our incessant verbosity. With In the Low, Scott Erickson and Justin McRoberts have offered the world an artifact of beauty and brevity, ushering us into that chamber of our interior lives that God has occupied from before the foundation of the world."--Curt Thompson, MD, author of The Deepest Place and The Soul of Desire
