Summary

What if your body has a gospel you've been ignoring?

Mine did. I spent 10 years trying to silence it with codependent ministry and religious education. This book is about what I learned when I finally started listening.

How to Treat Your Body Like a Sacred Text takes you through my personal journey from a theologically toxic childhood to pastoral burnout to recovery through listening to my body. Blending trauma theory with progressive religious insights, I offer practical skills for healing from toxic religion. Learn to listen to your body and transform your understanding of religion and trauma.
