Wardle made a solid book on how to overcome the wounds that we have with a biblical perspective. Terry Wardle does a great job sharing his personal journey to healing and recovery from depression, addiction, and brokeness.

But part of why this book isn’t rated higher for me is not necessarily because I think this book is mediocre at all. Rather, he has done a better job with other books that he has written, and it just felt like some of the concepts and even chapters of this book had things that were missing a more thorough explanation. He could’ve taken some things a few steps further and explained other things better.

It just felt like the book was a collection of different ideas, but failed to have a cohesive outline. It felt like I’ve read 10 different lectures, rather than a story. That’s not to say it was a bad thing, but it definitely is a step down from some of his other writings.

All in all, I would highly recommend this book to those who are looking to heal the wounds of their past, plus for those that want to learn more about reconciliation, forgiveness, repentance, and a biblical perspective on these things. This is not the greatest book if you were looking for something more therapeutical, but it’s solid and it’s forgiving, and Terry Wardle is a great man of God.

Rating: 6.5/10, 3 stars.

A very good and thoughtful book on the condition of the human heart amidst suffering and sickness. There are a couple of things I wrestled through, but ultimately found it to be an easy read and a good analysis of how to approach the topic. Wardle does a great job bringing in compassion and understanding towards the topic while also giving some good pointers and advice he has learned going through his own mental journey.

In awe of how the author unashamedly shares his journey and yet invites the reader into a life of wholeness.
