Reviews

“Drawing from psychological attachment theory and pastoral care theology, “Our Refuge and Strength: Using Psychoanalytic Techniques to Transform the Attachment Relationship to God” is the best integration of psychology and spirituality to date. Moreover, the author’s insightful case studies demonstrate the mysterious dynamics of moving from theory to practice. All readers, from seasoned professional therapists to aspiring student chaplains, will treasure Goodman’s book.” – John Snarey, Franklin N. Parker Professor Emeritus, Emory University “With his landmark achievement Our Refuge and Strength: Transforming Attachment to the Living God, Dr. Goodman provides key extensions to previous research on the attachment-religion connection. He takes this work to the therapy room as well as to flesh and blood of lived experience – his own and that of important historical figures. I thoroughly enjoyed this book, which is a must-read for anyone interested in the attachment-religion connection.” – Pehr Granqvist, The Eneroth Professor of Psychology, Dept. of Psychology, Stockholm University
