Abstract
This project aims to equip Christians to relieve depression through an online biblical mind renewal curriculum. Chapter 1 introduces the context, rationale, and goals of the project. Chapter 2 provides the biblical and theological foundation for biblical mind renewal, including an exposition of Romans 12:1-2. Chapter 3 addresses theoretical and practical issues related to relieving depression. Specifically, the physiological aspects of healthy brain function are introduced as a core consideration in relieving serious depression. Chapter 4 explains the implementation of the project. The project included conducting two pre-course surveys, teaching a ten-session curriculum, and conducting two post-series surveys to determine improvement of depression severity as well as improvement in equipping to relieve depression. Chapter 5 evaluates the effectiveness of the project based on achievement against the original goals. The key result is the positive statistically significant difference in participant well-being (depression severity) before and after the course: t(19) = 3.92, p=.05.
