Book Overview

Find Relief From Twelve False Assumptions About the Christian Faith.

Not everything believed as biblical truth is truly biblical. In this timeless classic, the author of the best-selling book of Christian counseling, Boundaries, debunk 12 commonly accepted beliefs that cause bondage rather than liberty, including:

It's selfish to have my needs met. If I have God, I don't need people. Guilt and shame are good for me. If...

Literally, my most favorite book...

In a very easy read, each chapter reviews a different crazy Christian teaching such as "I just need to give it to the Lord...". It explains how each of our our crazy Christian thinking ways keep us stuck in our problems. The most awesome parts are the very clear explanations of how to address the issues in life that we try to apply these crazy ways to. If you feel many suggested "Christian" ways to solve problems aren't working, this book is a must. Dr. Cloud is a very sincere Christian who is also incredibly wise in how God made people. His ways for addressing problems are simple, biblically based, and make sense. Best of all, they work!

Should Be Required Reading For All!

This book contains so much more than the title even suggests. It is also a thesis on sound mental health and healing from old emotional wounds. Many of the principles from Boundaries are also covered in this book. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking to better understand Biblical principles or anybody who wishes to heal from hurts of the past.

Completely changed the way I view myself and my Savior

I can't recommend this book highly enough. I have read it and reread it. These men know the Scriptures and they know life in the real world, where the pain of our shortcomings, our failures, our past, and our weakness can deny us a clear perspective of our life in Christ. This book has been a great source of truth, wisdom, and understanding.

The Bible becomes a source of health in this book.

If the Bible makes you feel guilty and/or depressed, yet you want to include it in your life, this book by the authors of "Boundaries" may come as a breath of healing fresh air. The popular title, "The Good Book" (Gomes), points out the dangers and misuses of reading the Bible. This title beautifully compliments it and offers suggestions for using the Bible in a healthy way and/or recovering from "Bible abuse" from well-meaning pastors, family, and friends. This title is also highly recommended for those who have been abused by Christian "recovery" programs, including homosexual change ministries. The author's book, "Boundaries", is a recommended companion reading to this title. Further reading to compliment this title in a deeper treatment is "Inspiration" (Thompson).
