A lot of new information has been published lately on brain science and how to live a more positive life. I was very glad to finally see someone connect all this research with traditional Christian faith. This book makes a good attempt to incorporate proven mindfulness techniques, such as meditation and expressions of gratitude, into the Christian tradition. I applaud the author for reaching out to traditional Christians with this science-based information.

This book does reach out to a conservative Christian audience. There is much talk of sin and the devil.. I really wish the author had simply stuck to his topic of connecting brain science with faith. There is much in this book to offer Christians of all stripes - especially progressives - but many of them will be turned off and tune out from heavily conservative language.
