Thompson, a Christian psychiatrist, looks at the mind-body connection and explains how understanding human stories can improve people's relationships with each other, God, and the world. Using the Bible and changing one's thought patterns creates a happier and more devoted person. "God can work through your mind to transform you," the author writes. Thompson uses case studies to assist readers in writing their own stories in order to take their place in the world with God. Readers can then explore their memories, the "rupture" of human sin, and healing through the New Testament, in an attempt to find deeper meaning in life. This is a journey for those who want to change the way they think about God. The author encourages engaging in spiritual disciplines (meditation, prayer, fasting, and study) and forming small groups in the local church that employ confession as a means of renewal. This is a tremendous book for the committed Christian seeker. (June) Copyright 2010 Reed Business Information.
