Escrito por Cloud y Townsend, autores de Límites para nuestros hijos, este libro cuenta con consejos bíblicos y prácticos para todo cristiano. ¿Está tu vida sin control? ¿siente que la gente te utiliza? ¿Le es difícil decir que no? ¿Está desilusionado con Dios por falta de respuesta a tus oraciones? Establecer límites claros es esencial para obtener un estilo de vida sano y balanceado. Un límite es un línea de propiedad personal que marca las cosas de las que somos responsables. En otras palabras, límites es lo que define quiénes somos, o quiénes no somos. Los límites afectan diferentes aspectos de nuestras vidas: Los límites físicos nos ayudan a determinar quién nos puede tocar y bajo qué circunstancia. Los límites mentales nos dan la libertad de tener ideas y opiniones propias. Los límites emocionales nos ayudan a tratar con nuestras propias emociones y a librarnos de las emociones dañinas y manipuladoras de otros. Los límites espirituales nos ayudan a distinguir entre la voluntad de Dios y la nuestra, y nos dan temor de Dios. Los doctores Henry Cloud y John Townsend ofrecen respuestas bíblicas a preguntas difíciles, a la vez que nos muestran cómo poner límites sanos con nuestros padres, nuestros cónyuges, nuestros hijos, nuestros amigos, nuestros compañeros de trabajo, y hasta con nosotros mismos.

Not everything believed as biblical truth is truly biblical. The co-directors of the Minirth Meier New Life Clinics West debunk 12 commonly accepted beliefs that cause bondage rather than liberty. They explain how nuggets of truth become cornerstones for error when wrongly understood, and they help build solid scriptural foundations that produce emotional freedom.

Revised and updated from the original, this honest and forthwright look at families of all shapes and sizes will help you down the path of healing (whether you know you need it or whether yo''re just not sure). Unlocking Your Family Patterns combines decade''s worth of counseling wisdom and pastoral care insights into this one practical resource. Your past may hurt, and your family''s patterns may have left emotional scars, but your future has not been laid in stone yet. There is hope for healing, there are lessons to learn, and there are paths toward family health. Using clinical, biblical and practical examples to help you uncover the patterns your family has lived in, this book might lead you toward the family u-turn you''ve been looking for.

Cloud and Townsend debunk some Christian myths, or assumptions, that prevent true healing and spiritual growth. The 12 Assumptions that they deal with include: "It''s selfish to have my needs met," "If I''m spiritual enough, I will have no pain or sinfulness," "If I change my behavior, I will grow spiritually and emotionally," "I just need to give it to the Lord," "One day, I''ll be fimished with recovery," "Leave the past behind," "If I have God, I don''t need people," "''Shoulds'' are good," "Guilt and shame are good for me," "If I make right choices, I will grow spiritually," "Just doing the right thing is more important than why I do it," and "If I know the truth, I will grow" --provided by publisher.

Step-by-step instructions take readers through four basic tasks that can help them improve their lives and live in God''s image.

In this groundbreaking work, the author zeroes in on four basic developmental decisions that all of us must negotiate in order to deal with our inner pain and distress and to enable us to function and grow emotionally and spiritually -- and make sense of our world.

Đặt ra những ranh giới rõ ràng là điều kiện thiết yếu để có được một cuộc sống lành mạnh và cân bằng. Một ranh giới là giới hạn cá nhân, phân định rõ những gì thuộc phạm vi trách nhiệm của chúng ta. Nói cách khác, những ranh giới xác định chúng ta là hay không là ai, và chúng tác động đến mọi mặt trong đời sống của chúng ta. +Ranh giới về thân thể giúp chúng ta xác định những ai có thể tiếp xúc với chúng ta và trong hoàn cảnh nào. +Ranh giới về tư tưởng cho phép chúng ta tự do trong suy nghĩ và đưa ra quan điểm độc lập. +Ranh giới về cảm xúc giúp chúng ta điều chỉnh được những cảm xúc của chính mình và tránh được những cảm xúc lôi kéo,c ó hại từ những người khác.
