The Slow Work

The Science of Patience with Curt Thompson

Need a new perspective on patience? Look to science.

Dr. Curt Thompson is a therapist, speaker, and the author of The Anatomy of the Soul and The Soul of Shame. As a psychiatrist, Curt’s work in recent years has helped others develop authentic relationships through interpersonal neurobiology and the Christian worldview. While Thompson comes to the table with scientific research and knowledge of how God designed our brains to function, his perspective on patience carries the inflection of a pastor.

Steadfast is a production of Sandra McCracken in partnership with Christianity Today. Produced by Sandra McCracken, Leslie Eiler Thompson Written by Leslie Eiler Thompson Edited by Andrew Osenga Mastered by Mike Cosper Music by Sandra McCracken
