Leaving the House of Blues

Posted on Thursday, May 01, 2008 at 12:50 PM by Robby Roberts

Most of my friends and family know that I've had some very tough battles with depression over the years. And, some people look at the things I've been hit with (like a truck!) and say it's justifiable. We all have those events in our lives that bring us down for a while. But, no matter what reason someone has for GETTING depressed, there is NEVER any excuse for living your life in the House of Blues. Hey, I love B.B. King and the Blues, but I need some upbeat music as well! Life is no different. Many people pay a visit to the House of Blues, saddle up to the bar and just stay there.

Well, starting Sunday, Pastor Tony is going to be starting a new series about "Leaving The House of Blues" and I encourage ALL of my friends and family to come to Fusion Church with me for the next few weeks. Even if you don't deal with depresssion yourself, you know someone that does (Hey, you know me, that counts!!) and you will get a great perspective on what they go through and how to help them. And, if someone you care about fights this fight, BRING THEM. If not for you, do it for them. Learn that God's love can overcome ANY problem.

I don't care if it's a 2 hour drive one way for you, the next few weeks will be worth it, I PROMISE. If you need directions, email me (or click here and put in your address).

I hope to see everyone of you there Sunday. I'll be out, greeting people at my usual station in the middle court yard, so I'll know who's there or not!!! (Just for saying that, I bet Greg is going to move me to another post.)
