Healing What's Within: Coming Home to Yourself-and to God-When You're Wounded, Weary, and Wandering
We can’t always control what happens to us. But we can discover how to heal the hidden hurt it leaves behind.

If you’re like many of us, you carry a weight of buried pain. Despite looking put together on the outside, you feel secretly fractured within. While you appear strong and resilient on the outside, inside a storm brews of all the ways you’ve been hurt or harmed. There’s a constant churn of unprocessed feelings of shame, anger, grief, or loneliness. And your body tells the story of its struggles in a myriad of aches and ailments. Little by little, you find yourself becoming disconnected from who you truly are. Not knowing what to do with your suffering and fearing you'll be hurt again, you’ve learned to cope, to numb and suppress the ache within.

It doesn’t have to be this way. In Healing What’s Within, therapist and professor Chuck DeGroat invites you on a compassionate journey inward to return and retune to the life God created you to live. Along the way, you will discover how to:
  • Gently consider and confront what’s keeping you stuck and blocking the path to joy and flourishing
  • Better understand the relationship between your body and your emotions
  • Experience God as a compassionate witness to your trauma—and his unconditional kindness to wherever you find yourself
  • Discover real rest and renewal as you reconnect with God, others, and yourself.
It’s never too late to start healing. God’s heart is always ready to help you find your way Home.

What People are Saying About This

Winn Collier

I’ve encountered Chuck in his illuminating writing, but what matters more to me is how I’ve seen Chuck behind the scenes, amid crisis and conflict. Chuck is trustworthy and wise. And I, like so many of us, need the invitation he offers here—to come home and find healing.

Geoff Holsclaw

Beyond making space for trauma, Chuck offers a healing path through it. Instead of seeing the Fall as God’s rejection that activates our protective strategies, Chuck reminds us that God’s connective pursuit is what heals the hurt within.

Aundi Kolber

This book is a beautiful resource shaped not only by Chuck’s clinical expertise and pastoral heart but also by his own hard-earned lived experience.

Laura Barringer

I could pick so many words in Healing What’s Within that ministered to my soul. But I choose just two now: redemptive remembering. Those healing words gently guided me as Chuck reminded me of how our extraordinarily kind and loving God is looking for me.

Mandy Smith

Drawing on his personal, pastoral, and counseling experience, Chuck DeGroat offers a kind invitation toward emotional and spiritual healing, providing stories, practices, and resources to allow for whole-person engagement.

Tara M. Owens

God’s messengers come in many shapes, forms, and sizes, and I believe Chuck DeGroat is one of them. Here, his words wave a bright sword of truth, not swung menacingly to keep out but joyously to welcome in, calling with the tender voice of Jesus, “Here! Here is the way home!”

Curt Thompson

Healing What’s Within is the book for those courageous and vulnerable enough to risk becoming acquainted with themselves in order to become themselves. And in Chuck DeGroat we have a guide of wisdom and humility.

Justin S. Holcomb

In Healing What’s Within, we are invited to acknowledge wounds, rediscover faith, and embark on a path of genuine restoration. This is a courageous and compassionate exploration of a path to great healing forged by God’s pursuit.

Dan B. Allender

Healing What’s Within invites you to address the paths and voices that have taken you away from your true home and reorients you to what is the delectable delight you were meant to know as shalom.

Dan White Jr.

With exceptional tenderness, breathtaking human stories, theological depth, and therapeutic insight comes Healing What’s Within. Really, this manifesto of healing is like finding that wise sage you’ve been desperate to have a conversation with.

Ben Sternke

In this beautifully gentle book, Chuck helps us to encounter a God who meets us in our most vulnerable places, not with harsh condemnation and punishment, but with compassion and curiosity, leading us toward healing the wounded places in our souls.

Matt Tebbe

Healing What’s Within is a practical guide on how to develop a holistic spirituality and practice that deals with real-world, real-person issues. This book is a gift to those who long for and thirst for righteousness.

Bishop Todd Hunter

I find Chuck to be an effective healer based on a rare combination of practical wisdom, insightful empathy, and tender pastoral affection. All this shines through in Healing What’s Within. I heartily recommend it.

Christina Edmondson

While we are indeed fearfully and wonderfully made, we are often wounded, weary, and wandering. Healing What’s Within supports our journey toward a holy wholeness.
