Produktbeschreibung
Do the practices of your church align with the New Testament structure that Christ intended? The phrase, 'wounded walking Christians,' is an oxymoron. The church is supposed to be a place of refuge and relief for those who are broken and wounded by the issues of life. However, some who come to find comfort and healing from the church often end up as collateral damage, experiencing more injuries due to the practices of church systems. Most Western culture church systems are syncretic, which means that other beliefs and values have been added to the New Testament church structure. This book challenges leaders to examine their church practices and systems to make necessary changes that will limit or even eliminate the shameful outcome of collateral damage.
Autorenporträt
Tina Combs, a Marriage, Family, and Child Therapist, combines theological perspectives to psychological practices to address the overall mental and spiritual health of her clients. Her passion is working with pastors' wives and women who strive to be healed mind, body, soul, and spirit. Growing up in the African American church and serving as a pastor's wife for 39 years, Tina saw people wounded and broken, and without effective and adequate access to mental health services. Sadly, church systems were often times culpable in some of the brokenness. This book is the first of a series which will critically examine church systems and the people as collateral damage.
