Curt Thompson as a psychologist, writer, podcaster, and speaker offers so many insights about intersection or neurobiology and theology. For the past few years I’ve tried to read and listen and take in as much as I can. This book is about suffering and the formation of hope. 

Reading it along with my confessional community was a great experience. We talked about Thompson’s words and our own experiences as individuals and as a group. I learned from both the book and our conversations. And I recommend the book and being a part of a confessional community. 

If you were to see my copy of the book you would see marked passages throughout. This is one I will revisit often and pray to apply truths that align with God’s truth - in his Word (Bible) and in his creations (human mind and relationships).
