Review Quotes

Fr. Joshua empowers us to take the steps to walk closer with Christ, with others, and with ourselves. Healing Your Wounded Soul provides the tools we need to comprehend the depth of our woundedness and the peace beyond understanding that emerges from the pain. I would recommend this book to all wounded souls, that is, to everyone.

- Dr. Albert Rossi, author of Becoming a Healing Presence and All is Well

Fr. Joshua explains in easy-to-understand prose many terms and concepts taken from his study of human psychology to describe the ways in which people's relationships with God and neighbor are hindered by their past. Instead of offering purely secular advice, however, Fr. Joshua draws on the ascetical spiritual tradition to offer an Orthodox Christian path towards peace and healing.
