My boyfriend has bouts of depression. He can't find any christian friends. He thinks that God hasn't blessed him with any gifts or talents. I can see how much God has blessed him, but he can't see for himself. He professes to be a Christian. I can definately see the change in him as well. He used to party every night and get drunk with his friends, including his own brother. He started dating me. I brought him to church. He, thank the Lord, became a Christian. He got baptized. His family, including his brother, persecutes him almost every day for being a Christian. His brother and his old drinking buddies make fun of him and try to make him drink every time they see him. They also treat me horribly because they think I did this to him. My boyfriend tells me that partying was the only thing he was good at. (which i don't believe!) I would say to my boyfriend to just forget about all his friends, BUT, it's his brother, and sometimes his own father, that makes him stumble the most. How can i help my boyfriend? How can i encourage him. PLEASE I NEED HELP! I feel like if i don't help him soon, he'll do something horrible
