A Lifting Up for the Downcast

Written by William Bridge

Narrated by Wayne Evans

In A Lifting Up for the Downcast, Puritan preacher William Bridge offers a profound exploration of spiritual depression through thirteen powerful sermons on Psalm 42:11, originally delivered in Stepney, London, in 1648. As a true physician of souls, Bridge skillfully diagnoses the heart's deepest afflictions, addressing the struggles that believers face, including great sins, weak grace, failure in duties, lack of assurance, temptation, desertion, and affliction.

Bridge's insights are timeless; the causes of spiritual discouragement he identifies resonate just as deeply with twenty-first-century Christians as they did with those from past generations. But he doesn't stop at diagnosis. With compassion and clarity, Bridge provides practical directions for applying the remedy, ensuring that readers not only understand their struggles but also find a pathway to hope and renewal.

For anyone feeling weighed down by despair, A Lifting Up for the Downcast is an essential companion, offering encouragement and guidance to uplift the spirit and restore the joy of salvation.
