Revealed: What the Bible Can Teach You About Yourself presents a unique look at a familiar cast of biblical characters through the eyes of a psychologist. While weaving in her personal story of healing, Schaffner uses her professional background to expertly highlight themes of seeking simplicity, finding purpose, and navigating painful and emotional experiences.

Comprised of compelling, relatable stories, Revealed makes the Bible come alive to readers in a personal and meaningful way. Through an in-depth look at the hearts of well-known biblical characters, Schaffner explores ways readers can relate to these cherished stories in their own spiritual lives, acknowledging that everyone shares the common experiences of being pulled toward external measures such as wealth, achievement, and affirmation from others.

The author challenges readers to face the reality of their hearts and begin an inward journey of renewal, listening for God's voice in unlikely places--and through unlikely people. Readers will see themselves more clearly through the lens of scripture and ultimately experience deeper self-awareness and spiritual growth.

Review:

As a small-group study or a resource for individual growth, Revealed: What the Bible Can Teach You About Yourself inspires deep spiritual reflection born out of the relationship between scripture and real life. Dr. Schaffner gives us helpful tools for growth as we examine how scripture speaks to our personal experiences and the world around us. Don't miss this opportunity to develop a new relationship with yourself, others, and the story of God's consistent presence throughout life. --Rev. Susan Allen Grady, Senior Pastor, Embry Hills United Methodist Church Atlanta, Georgia

As a Christian and a psychologist, Dr. Schaffner brings a unique, in-depth perspective to her personal study of the Bible. The biblical stories covered in Revealed take on new life, offering contemporary relevance and interpretation by an insightful reader. Both her personal reflections and the encouragement she offers are helpful. Dr. Schaffner's book provides an example and an opening for readers to go deeper. Only by going deeper do we have any hope of finding God's messages for us. --Donald R. Nicholas, PhD, Professor, Counseling Psychology Ball State University
