Though he'd performed extraordinary miracles and offered faith-filled prayers anxiety and depression drove him to a place where he asked God to end his life. Elijah's story was much like our own because he was an ordinary person just like you and me.</span></p><ol><li data-list=bullet><span class=ql-ui contenteditable=false></span><span style=color: rgba(44 54 58 1)>Discover God's extraordinary sustaining love that is specifically for you.</span></li><li data-list=bullet><span class=ql-ui contenteditable=false></span><span style=color: rgba(44 54 58 1)>Find the answer to what is at the core of today's identity issues.</span></li><li data-list=bullet><span class=ql-ui contenteditable=false></span><span style=color: rgba(44 54 58 1)>Conquer difficulty in forgiving others.</span></li><li data-list=bullet><span class=ql-ui contenteditable=false></span><span style=color: rgba(44 54 58 1)>Learn to love the way God uniquely made you flaws and all.</span></li></ol><p><span style=color: rgba(44 54 58 1)>Written by a board-certified pediatrician with almost 20 years of clinical experience </span><em style=color: rgba(44 54 58 1)>Under The Broom Tree</em><span style=color: rgba(44 54 58 1)> explores the mental health epidemic of this generation with fearless faith openhearted honesty and refreshing transparency.</span></p><p class=ql-align-justify><br></p><p class=ql-align-justify><br></p><p class=ql-align-justify><strong>What Others Say About This Book:</strong></p><p class=ql-align-justify><span style=color: rgba(29 34 40 1)>B.E.
