We're all infected with a spiritual disease. Its name is shame. Whether we realize it or not, shame affects every aspect of our personal lives and vocational endeavors. It seeks to destroy our identity in Christ, replacing it with a damaged version of ourselves that results in unhealed pain and brokenness. But God is telling a different story for your life.

Psychiatrist Curt Thompson unpacks the soul of shame, revealing its ubiquitous nature and neurobiological roots. He also provides the theological and practical tools necessary to dismantle shame, based on years of researching its damaging effects and counseling people to overcome those wounds. Thompson's expertise and compassion will help you identify your own pains and struggles and find freedom from the lifelong negative messages that bind you. Rewrite the story of your life and embrace healing and wholeness as you discover and defeat shame's insidious agenda.

I wish the author would have read his work

I you have ever listened to Dr. Curt Thompson; you probably understand why this book for me falls flat by the narrator.

The author seems for me to be the only authentic voice with difficult but an important work such as this.

life changing

I have listened to this book several times now, and feel like I'm starting to understand how shame affects my thought life and how I therefore interact with those I come into contact. The book is personal and tells a great story of the writer himself and some of those he got to counsel. This book and others, with the help of a regular Centering Prayer routine is helping me make changes I was not able to make before.
Thank you.

excellent book

I think this book is helpful for anyone who wants a more abundant life

WOW!!!..Game Changer... Jackpot

So this book popped up and I had a little bet of a driving trip coming: an available credit on Audible...so I gambled!!!
Jackpot!!!

A must listen for EVERYONE!

It is irrelevant what your upbringing and past might have been, reading this book will empower you to begin remembering and working through some of the hidden effects of Shame you never knew were there, and having negative effects on you today. as Dr Thompson says going through this process with a group of trusted friends would be best if you are able, please read this book if you think you don't suffer from shame currently or from your past that's fine but the tools and the Insight he shares in this book will help you be more empathetic and a blessing to those around you.
