Finalist in Religious Non-Fiction and Spirituality for 2016 Next
Generation Indie Book Awards Struggling with lifelong disordered
eating and adolescent addiction, Chris Cole had his first psychotic
episode at the age of eighteen, suddenly believing he was the
Second Coming of Christ. He lost his identity and tried to perform
miracles and was ultimately arrested in the lobby of his college
dormitory—all while convinced he was being taken to his
crucifixion. Even when sanity returned, he could not help but
contemplate God's involvement. For years, Chris danced with
delusion, but he eventually surrendered to his humanity and learned
to embrace reality. The Body of Chris explores mental
illness—from bipolar disorder to substance use to binge
eating—in one man’s search for salvation. From his oldest
wounds to his renewed spirituality, author Chris Cole tells his
story with unflinching honesty in hopes of reaching people who
suffer from mental illness and those who love them.
