boundaries for your soul -- a book review

Alison Cook and Kimberly Miller's Boundaries for Your Soul: How to Turn Overwhelming Thoughts and Feelings into Your Greatest Allies is an excellent blend of psychology and Christian faith that brings rich insight into the problems that most plague genuine Christian living:  Things like anger, fear and shame.  Here, practitioners who has assisted countless others in walking through their own lives and dealing with that negativity present a spiritually-healthy perspective that Christians -- particularly pastors -- would be foolish to ignore.

And that's because their approach simply makes sense.  Too often, pastors encourage parishioners to ignore those negative feelings.  Fight them.  But Cook and Miller know that it's only in embracing them -- only in learning lessons from them -- can we grow into spiritually and mentally healthy persons.

Their integration of psychology and faith creates one, richer, more comprehensive approach, and this benefits the reader tremendously.

Don't neglect this book.  Spend time with it.  Soak in it.  And find here the kinds of healing for which you've longed.
