Review Quotes
"Everett Worthington--accomplished psychological scientist, biblically rooted person of faith and professional writer--is the perfect person to assist Christians in coming to peace with today's psychology. With his conversational voice and dry wit, he introduces us to startling findings, differing perspectives, and evidence-based insights on faith and faithful living. Highly recommended!"
