Korey Cooper & Jen Ledger Give Advice on How to Help a Friend Struggling With Anxiety or Depression

Jen's accent is so heavenly to listen to when she talks. The members of this band are so inspiring. I wish I could be as faithful close with religion like Jen is. I've never felt religious and I wish I could be because I could become a better person and find my place in this world. I've felt depressed for years and I know I can't win this battle on my own. I need help.

JEN and Corey I'm waiting on You to become Shepherds of the Lord!!! Become a Pastor! You Will Lead the Sheep unto thy Pastors of our Lord!!! Sister Wisdom. There is something I want you and Corey to See Check out Sister Wisdom in the Book of Wisdom the Catholic Bible

I am a big fan of Skillet and a big fan of Ledger. The music is very encouraging. I am getting ready to attend the show in Kent Washington tomorrow. Way to share your faith with us. Korey Cooper, and Jen ledger. God bless.

haha +1 for Ecclesiastes too XD

Job ch 3 was the selection I couldn't get away from during my depression. I definitely agree it's not a good place to get stuck

A person could use a prescription too for things like that. Nothing wrong with it.

One of the many things I really admire about Skillet is the way that they have solid foundations as people and are not afraid to stand up for their convictions. Not only are they super talented with great music, they have a message that makes you instantly inspired to live your best life.

There’s a difference between shows not wanting you because you’re Christian, and John spewing anti truth nonsense that put people in danger.

She looks great to be almost 50

Korey is bubbling power through her! Wow! Such amazing women! It’s amazing to see how powerful and solid skillet are! God be praised!

The entire band for Skillet is just SOLID! They know the Truth of Jesus Christ and aren't afraid to tell it. This is a good lesson on what do the other entertainers in your life actually speak and stand on

Bruh. Jen's reference to the feeding of the 5,000 was incredible in making her point about what were responsible for in working with/trusting God. He really finishes the rest for us.❤️

This helped me. I have been battling both depression and anxiety and a lot of it stems from my past. I was in continuous situations as a highschooler/ college student where I had no body to turn to. The only person I really could was God. I definitely still get hit hard everyday and have to continually remind myself of who I am. Lately God has been working on his definition of "redemption" which I personally is the greatest word in this issue. Today's Christianity talks about redemption in only correlation with the bonds of sin and the effect of Jesus on the cross but it goes so much deeper then that. Great talk.

I'm sorry to hear they don't utilize therapy. God allows people to be gifted with insight and help and I think we're meant to realize and interact with people who have the gifts to guide us... its there to help. It's not something we can just do on our own.

I love skillet 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

we are not meant to be alone or isolated.

Jen,
If you ever read this, your backing vocals and harmonizing is the best I’ve ever heard. I miss going to Winter Jam and seeing you guys. And May I say, I could be a very critical vocal critic! 😂 🙏🏻

I have a daughter who is 13 and a bit edgy. She can't do frilly girly stuff and devotionals are no exception. Are Korey and Jen open to doing an edgy girls' devo in the near future? Love the show, love you guys.

Wooh anxiety sucks. Yep Jen it’s a spiritual battle , if we love jesus the anxiety demons are some of the first to attack. Spirituality is realer then most people even knowledgeable Christian’s talk about.

nice

Just saw Skillet perform for the first time. Before that, I’ve heard of them but I haven’t heard much of their music. These two women were bosses on that stage. I am a huge fan of theirs now.

I like Jen, similar story

Thank you so much for sharing this Godly wisdom. This was tremendously encouraging to me! God bless you and keep you as you continue to be a light in the music world to glorify Jesus’ name.

Greatest thing you can realize when going through Anxiety and Depression as a Christian is that God is in our Corner. Take care and God Bless.

You are truly warriors, Joel 1: 13-14. 🙏

Thank heaven for your loving caring souls Amen 🙏 Thank You Heavenly Father, Holy Spirit, and Our Lord Jesus Christ Amen 🙏

I got into Jen’s solo music this year and it’s good stuff she has a great singing voice 🤘🎸

Totally relate to Korey and Jen's stories.

Wow Korey is just naturaly very amped. Peculiar, unique wonderful.

SKILLET= GREATEST CHRISTIAN ROCK BAND EVER

Thanks so.much for sharing. I want to reach the point that I can do this.

This is good, but every single time someone says be held accountable, be in a community I think about the ones who are lonely and the ones who don't trust others. What advice would you give them? Not everyone has friends and certainly not everyone has a strong support group like these women do. Saying that it's just as easy as "finding" a group doesn't help. Some people just don't make friends easily and it's not that they are introverts. Food for thought.

anxiety and depression come from evil spirits and demons.

I am not good at remembering truth,
Daniel was not looking at the lion.
Don't look at the storm.
Look to Him.
Shield of faith.
If anxiety and depression is a preset then be proactive.
The father will be happy with you laying out your heart to him.
Thank you skillet for the song stars

The women of Skillet = Powerhouses!

💙💙💙

What band !!!jen and korey you guys are awesome ,,,every time want to give up on forming a band God comes and light that little light of faith and regenerize me awesome 🙌🎸🎸😎👍

We need a skillet worship album!!!

Thank you! perfect timing!

I am excited to listen to this. I struggle with depression and I think it's an important conversation to have and such

Needed some things in here, thanks ladies. 💜 Also the striving struggle Korey mentioned is exactly what I deal hard with. I’s like to hear her talk more on it sometime.

No respect Korey you speak about struggling you guys are multi Millionaires I don't see your struggle?

This is not just an interview, but a genuine conversation of fellow believers in Christ are having. That's church. Jen and Korey are still women who struggle, but they are putting their trust in God. I met them and the rest of the band back in 2020, they are kind people. I dealt with anxiety and depression. Can it happen again? Yes. However, The Holy Spirit is my comforter, my counselor, and my guide to The Truth. I won't stop until my last breath. Glory to The Most High.

Very encouraging interview! Truth!

First time I hear them speaking just like that , Jen has no British accent anymore lmao

Mine is a bit different. I have BPD and undiagnosed CPTSD and Depersonalization/Derealization Disorder. Renewing the mind, focusing on God, and being eternity-minded is simple and easy. Until traumatic memories and emotional flashbacks hit, then so does depersonalization and brain fog. Thinking at all is extremely difficult. Cutting and eating disorder relapses happen in dissociative states. I don't know. Is there advice when someone has episodes of trauma and dissociation that prohibit thinking in general? I hope this makes sense.
