When God Talks Back: Understanding The American... -

T.M. Luhrmann’s When God Talks Back explores how modern American Evangelicals cultivate an intimate, conversational relationship with an invisible deity by treating inner thoughts as external divine communication. The work examines how believers train their minds through absorption and imaginative play to experience God as a "hyperreal," therapeutic presence in daily life.
