The Soul of Shame: Retelling the Stories We Believe About Ourselves

Curt Thompson combines neuroscience, Christian theology, and clinical insight to show how shame distorts identity and isolates people. He offers a hopeful path toward healing through truthful relationships, spiritual formation, and the renewing work of God.

The book helps readers recognize shame's patterns in their inner lives, families, work, and communities. It is especially useful for men who struggle to name emotional pain and for leaders who want a wiser, more compassionate framework for care.
