4.9/5 (34397 ratings)

Description:As our cultural understanding of the impact of childhood trauma has deepened, it's easy to overlook the extraordinary resilience that can grow from the soil of early adversity. What Science and Scripture Say About Resilience provides a comprehensive exploration of what adversity and trauma truly mean, laying the foundation for a deeper understanding of these complex experiences. This book presents a uniquely Christian perspective on resilience, seamlessly integrating substantive scientific research with biblical truth, offering a hopeful and faithful approach to overcoming adversity. With a strong emphasis on relationships, nine practical, relationship-centered strategies are offered to transform adversity into a catalyst for growth and resilience.Through compelling stories, examples, and explanations of important research studies, this book brings the concept of resilience to life, showing rather than merely telling how it can be cultivated. Challenging the conventional view of adversity as solely negative, Overcoming reveals how challenge is a crucial ingredient for building resilience, just as resistance is essential for building physical strength. Unlike some books that prescribe complex services and programs, Overcoming emphasizes the power of relationships to buffer the negative impacts of adversity. It demonstrates how small acts of love and connection can make it easier for children to adapt and overcome hardships.Co-authored by well-credentialed researchers and followers of Christ, Overcoming provides a unique and authoritative voice on the topic of resilience. With its unique blend of scientific rigor, biblical wisdom, and practical guidance, this book is an essential resource for anyone seeking to nurture resilience in the face of adversity.Praise for Overcoming..."This book is like a strong yet gentle hand that holds us all by the chins and slowly lifts our eyes up to see that our past and present circumstances are not the end of the story. Both science and scripture affirm - we are resilient, and there is hope." - Jason Johnson, Director of Church Engagement and Mobilization with CAFO, foster and adoptive parent"We all want to do the right thing, but knowledge is essential. In Overcoming, Nicole Wilke and Mandy Howard interpret the latest research on trauma in a Biblical context providing an invaluable roadmap for supporting those in our community who have experienced adversity." - Dr. Dana Johnson, M.D., Ph.D., Founder of the International Adoption Clinic at the University of Minnesota, child welfare researcher, and adoptive fatherWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
