Writing

Hello! I’m Dr. Angela D. Schaffner, author of Revealed: What the Bible Can Teach You About Yourself, a collection of self-reflective stories and Bible stories told through the lens of a psychologist. The format of the book is a six-week study with reflective readings during each week, a suggested weekend spiritual practice, and a facilitator’s guide. It can be used in a small group or for individual spiritual growth.

Revealed presents a unique look at a familiar cast of biblical characters. While weaving in my personal story of healing, I speak from my professional background, highlighting themes of seeking simplicity, finding purpose, and navigating painful emotional experiences.

Comprised of compelling, relatable stories, Revealed makes the Bible come alive to readers in a personal and meaningful way. Through an in-depth look at the hearts of well-known biblical characters, I explore ways readers can relate to these cherished stories in their own spiritual lives, acknowledging that everyone shares the common experiences of being pulled toward external measures such as wealth, achievement, and affirmation from others.

Through Revealed, I hope readers will be challenged to face the reality of their hearts and begin an inward journey of renewal, listening for God’s voice from everyone, everywhere. I hope readers will see themselves more clearly through the lens of scripture and ultimately experience deeper self-awareness and spiritual growth.
