About

Not a ladder. A chair.

Still Here Faith exists because there is a specific kind of loneliness that comes from being a Christian who is struggling and feeling like you should not be.

The feeling that depression means your faith is failing. That if you prayed more, it would lift. That your exhaustion is evidence of something broken in you instead of something hard happening to you. That you cannot say how bad it is because the people around you expect you to be okay.

This site was built for those people. Not as a ladder to climb. As a chair to sit in.

About Dan Larson

I created Still Here Faith because I needed this kind of place too. Not a place that told me to try harder. Not a place that acted like prayer and panic could not exist in the same body. A place that could tell the truth gently.

I write from lived experience, not from above you. I know what it is like to sit in the long, quiet middle, where you still believe, but you do not feel fixed.

I am not a therapist, doctor, or pastor. I am a Christian, a writer, and a fellow traveler trying to gather honest words, safe resources, and small next steps for people who are tired of pretending.

I am also the author of Still Here: Devotions for the Long, Quiet Middle, a devotional for the days when you still love God, but do not feel okay.

What Still Here Faith is

  • A Christian mental health resource hub with prayers, Bible verses, support directories, and free downloads
  • A shame-free space for believers who are struggling with depression, anxiety, numbness, grief, or burnout
  • A place to find starting points for support: online groups, Christian counseling directories, church care, and crisis resources
  • A companion to the Still Here devotional
  • A resource for friends, family, pastors, and church leaders who want to support people they love

What Still Here Faith is not

  • - A medical, clinical, or therapeutic service
  • - A crisis line or emergency mental health resource. For crisis, please call or text 988 in the U.S.
  • - A substitute for professional mental health care, therapy, medication, or pastoral support
  • - A place that claims prayer alone will cure depression
  • - A source of medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment

A note on professional care: Therapy, medication, pastoral care, and medical support are all appropriate and often necessary parts of caring for mental health. This site affirms all of these. Seeking help is not a sign of weak faith. It is often how God provides healing and support.
