An arresting collection of first-hand accounts from Christians who hear voices, be they comforting, critical or conversational. The author's background in theology and psychiatry allows him to evaluate and interpret these stories to help the reader engage with the theological issues raised and find meaning from them.

In Christians Hearing Voices we see movement from an individual's experience, into that of being in community with others who have also heard and responded to the mystery of voices. Professor Cook has gathered many contextualised examples and with warmth, respect and expertise reflected upon a phenomenon that is shown to be an integral part of our humanity.
