I appreciate and respect Chris as a friend, pastor and brother in Christ. His honesty and empathy, insight, and understanding of mental health difficulties speaks volumes. He has a passion for us to know the love and sovereignty of the Lord through all.

Dr. Keith Condie

Chris ‘gets’ mental illness. He has been in the dark places and openly shares his personal experience. We hear of the help that can be gained from medical and psychological treatments, and the difference that a supportive community can make. But with a pastor’s heart, Chris’ main aim is to speak biblical truth into this difficult context—to gently correct false patterns of thinking and feeling, and above all, to point the reader to the joy and refreshment that is found in knowing that our acceptance, security and hope depend upon God’s unchanging love, not the quality of our mental health.

Dr. Tim Lane

With compassion, clarity and humility, Chris Cipollone walks the reader through a refreshing look at how God’s grace in Christ is the most important antidote for anxiety and depression. As I read “Down, Not Out,” I was personally encouraged. I found myself growing in compassion for so many people I know who struggle in significant ways. Chris is realistic as he captures the multi-dimensional aspects of anxiety and depression, and cautions us against simplistic quick-fixes. Rather, he offers a personal, gracious God who walks with us, encourages us, and provides hope and comfort along the path. Each carefully written chapter exudes comfort and hope. I can’t think of anyone who doesn’t need that!”
