The message of Created for Connection is simple: Forget about learning how to argue better, analyzing your early childhood, or making grand romantic gestures. Instead, get to the emotional underpinnings of your relationship by recognizing that you are attached to and dependent on your partner in much the same way that a child is on a parent and we are on the Heavenly Father for nurturing, soothing, and protection.

What does it take to be secure in our sense of belonging and self-worth? We may hustle to attain this security through achievements, meeting expectations, or repeating affirmations to ourselves - but Dr. Brené Brown's research has shown there is ultimately one obstacle to our sense of worthiness. “Shame is the barrier,” she teaches, “and building shame resilience is how we overcome it.”

After miraculously surviving a near-fatal brainstem stroke at age 26, as told in their memoir, Hope Heals, life for Katherine and Jay Wolf changed forever - and so did the way they viewed God, the world, and themselves in it. There was no going back to normal after such a tragedy. Yet Katherine and Jay learned that suffering is not the end, but rather the beginning of a new story. In Suffer Strong, they invite us into this new story as they share universal lessons and helpful practices.
Publisher's Summary
The Gospel Coalition Top Books of 2015 in Faith and Work
Hearts & Minds Bookstore's Best Books of 2015, Applied Theology, Basic Christian Living, Whole Life Discipleship
We're all infected with a spiritual disease. Its name is shame. Whether we realize it or not, shame affects every aspect of our personal lives and vocational endeavors. It seeks to destroy our identity in Christ, replacing it with a damaged version of ourselves that results in unhealed pain and brokenness. But God is telling a different story for your life.
Psychiatrist Curt Thompson unpacks the soul of shame, revealing its ubiquitous nature and neurobiological roots. He also provides the theological and practical tools necessary to dismantle shame, based on years of researching its damaging effects and counseling people to overcome those wounds. Thompson's expertise and compassion will help you identify your own pains and struggles and find freedom from the lifelong negative messages that bind you. Rewrite the story of your life and embrace healing and wholeness as you discover and defeat shame's insidious agenda.

Interesting...
This is very good for anyone who is feeling deep shame or having trouble getting through this feeling. It explains everything you want to know about shame. Some are obvious and then some are not so obvious. This could be extremely helpful to a lot of people. Well written and narrated. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.

Best book I’ve read in years
The information in this book has changed my life. My wife is reading it at the same time, and the conversations that have come from our discussions have brought us together in a way I didn’t even know was possible. Understanding what shame is and how it has invaded every area of my life has brought so much awareness and helped me to understand the way it has shaped the story I tell myself about myself. The best part is that you can’t unsee this information; simply knowing shame is there and how it works already begins to undo the damage caused. I am extremely grateful for this book. There is no way I can say in a few short sentences how important this information is to everybody. It not only shows us what we’re up against, but gives us the roadmap to healing and full integration of our mind, body, and soul that ultimately leads to living life as it was intended; full of joy, creativity, acceptance, community and love.

Eye opening
I had never considered shame as the soul driving force behind anxiety and avoidance behavior. This book has changed my approach in many ways. Great insight and worth the 8 hour investment.

Fits the Liberal Christian Gospel
Those of a conservative evangelical persuasion would do better to read John Owen's treatment of shame in his work on the Holy Spirit (Pneumatologia), Book 4, Chapter 4-5 concerning the "defilement" and "pollution" of sin with its cleansing in the blood of Christ.

Wonderful & Annoying
I will say this is a 5 star in defining, revealing what shame is and what to do about it.
I don’t like the doctrinal push on his view of God and Christ. I thought no as a psychiatrist he should be mindful that not everyone is a Catholic or a Christian or a believer in God. He should have stayed in the psychological wisdom the Bible does provide.. which he does 90% of the time - but as readers we become your patient or student. This though your book you enforce God, the Trinity and that will be disturbing to many listeners.
However as I bypass those issues and some of the rambling tangents ... I really do think this book is going to help me.

Not what I was looking for
Sorry to say but this book is not what I want or thought it was. If you want a book on the religious ideas of shame then this book is for you. But if you want something to explain shame and how we as humans deal with that this is not the book for you.

A must listen for EVERYONE!
It is irrelevant what your upbringing and past might have been, reading this book will empower you to begin remembering and working through some of the hidden effects of Shame you never knew were there, and having negative effects on you today. as Dr Thompson says going through this process with a group of trusted friends would be best if you are able, please read this book if you think you don't suffer from shame currently or from your past that's fine but the tools and the Insight he shares in this book will help you be more empathetic and a blessing to those around you.
