What is it?
This course was written by the American psychologists Henry Cloud and John Townsend. It is a healthy integration of psychology and biblical teaching.
Boundaries is a course which is about ourselves how we can learn to help ourselves. It is not about fixing others.
The intention of the course is to help you change old behaviour patterns like compliance, keeping the peace at all costs, aggressive confrontations, or perhaps learning why you resort to manipulation in your dealings with those closest to you.
Often having no boundaries results in resentment an inability to say “no” means we often don’t finish tasks. Sometimes we rescue people inappropriately. All these things may indicate a lack of boundaries.
Boundaries aims to teach us about what our responsibilities are, and what they are not. As we learn these truths, we will become more functional, healthier and more loving in all our relationships. Learning about ourselves is a life-long goal hopefully becoming more Christ-like as we progress.
