Product Description Having clear boundaries is essential to a healthy, balanced lifestyle. A boundary is a personal property line that marks those things for which we are responsible. In other words, boundaries define who we are and who we are not. Boundaries impact all areas of our lives: Physical boundaries help us determine who may touch us and under what circumstances -- Mental boundaries give us the freedom to have our own thoughts and opinions -- Emotional boundaries help us to deal with our own emotions and disengage from the harmful, manipulative emotions of others -- Spiritual boundaries help us to distinguish God's will from our own and give us renewed awe for our Creator -- Often, Christians focus so much on being loving and unselfish that they forget their own limits and limitations. When confronted with their lack of boundaries, they ask: - Can I set limits and still be a loving person? - What are legitimate boundaries? - What if someone is upset or hurt by my boundaries? - How do I answer someone who wants my time, love, energy, or money? - Aren't boundaries selfish? - Why do I feel guilty or afraid when I consider setting boundaries? Dr. Henry Cloud and Dr. John Townsend offer biblically-based answers to these and other tough questions, showing us how to set healthy boundaries with our parents, spouses, children, friends, co-workers, and even ourselves. |

Customer Reviews Average Customer Rating: (2 reviews)  An absolute must August 29, 2006Reviewer: Anonymous from This book is a must. This book I will always have on my shelf. Coming from a dysfunctional, non-spiritual background, this book was essential for me to read to understand how to truly help others, especially if they are dysfunctional. It helped me understand the line between selfishness and simple boundaries. You can have boundaries in respecting yourself and clear lines for how others can respect you, without being deemed "selfish". Amazing book, highly recommended. Boundaries July 29, 2005Reviewer: Anonymous from Boundaries define who we are and who we are not. The authors explain how having clear boundaries is essential to a healty, balanced lifestyle.
