Great intro and primer, but I'd love to see more in depth study on some of the patristics he mentioned, as well as some more fleshed out practices. Also, there were too many stories for me, but that just might be me.

was reading this as like a book club moment with the other youth leaders, but we were to read the final chapter on our own and I only just finally read it. And it feels kind of weird to be rating a nonfiction book, but it was so, so good. I highly recommend. Incredibly eye-opening. Scazzero’s vulnerability and examples from his life really helped paint the picture he was trying to depict. Honestly, I never really thought about how hand-in-hand emotions and spirituality go. I should have, but I didn’t. I’m realising now how many things in my life have made me who I am today and why I react the way(s) I do to things. This book has really opened my eyes to things and now I know what’s going on and how I can improve and invite God in more and grow. Will defo be reading at least annually, if not more. So so so so so good.

This book was a great reminder to slow down on focus on my spiritual life above all else. Everything else will fall into place. There were a few chapters that didn’t really apply to me because I don’t come from a broken home, but overall there were some great points.

Good book! It has given me lots to think about. I will need to go back and reread it someday to see how much I've grown.
