We Who Wrestle with God
Perceptions of the Divine

In 'We Who Wrestle with God', Dr. Peterson delves into the ancient, foundational stories of the Western world.
He analyzes Biblical accounts of rebellion, sacrifice, suffering, and triumph, such as the stories of Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel, Noah, the Tower of Babel, Abraham, and Moses.
The book explores how these stories stabilize, inspire, and unite us culturally and psychologically.
It encourages readers to understand these narratives scientifically and spiritually, to become conscious of the structure of their souls and societies, and to see themselves and others in a new light.
