Untangling A Christian Perspective on Codependency helps identify the painful effects of codependency, the compulsion to help everyone, and fix everything. And, provides biblical guidance about how to break free of these destructive patterns.
This book, along with other input (like a supportive friend or two, who really love you), is an eye-opener! There are some hard truths about codependents and their illness and this book lays them out in a way that can be absorbed if and when the codependent becomes willing. I feel much better-able to actually accomplish change and freedom having read this book. It is written in a way that is sensitive to the mindset of its intended readership, not just another book about how you got so screwed up. It takes you to some practical solutions.
Not all that impressed. Does a fair job of describing the problem but not much on a solution. And I kind of thought he was using nugget theology - and that drives me nuts. Other than that, it was great!!
This is an excellent book dealing with co-dependency & the Christian. Those who want an over-simplification of the subject & do not really understand the problem of co-dependency might not like it. I highly recommend this book.
