Book Description
In these essays, which were originally delivered as sermons, Coffin argues that religion has fallen on hard times. He offers a cogent means of recovering a faith true to the spirit of the Bible and able to face up to the uncertainties of the present age. Brings essential biblical insights to bear on such issues as arms race, abortion, homosexuality, separation of church and state, communism, the Moral Majority and the true meaning of "Born again." In his vision, the churches can become centers of creative and courageous thinking, and not mere sanctuaries for frustrated men unable to meet the questions of moral and intellectual uncertainty.

The Courage to Love: Principles and Practices of Self-Relations Psychotherapy
Author: Stephen Gilligan
Publisher: W. W. Norton & Company
ISBN: 039370923X
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 237
Book Description
This is a book about how psychotherapy may be used to cultivate the courage and freedom to love. In a time when love seems to be fading and hatred and despair rising, it presents love as a skill and force that can heal and invigorate, reconnect and guide, calm and encourage. In Gilligan's self-relations approach, psychotherapy is a conversation about competing differences. When these differences are treated violently or indifferently, problems arise; solutions develop when the skills of love are practiced. Those practical skills are described here, with an emphasis on postconventional ethics, Buddhist and aikido principles, and ideas of human sponsorship.
