Now I'm really looking forward to reading it. If Hank Hanegraaff doesn't like it, it's bound to be good. Hanegraaff's views are too traditional for me. However, he speaks well for his particular constituency, one to which I don't belong.

Some books by a Christian Psychologist that I can recommend are, Boundaries, Safe People, Boundaries face to face : how to have that difficult conversation you've been avoiding .
They are by Henry Cloud and some are co-authored by Townsend. There are a number of other books by Cloud. Boundaries is a popular book.
They should be able to be found in any library.

The book discussion board is dead. Was it only for those long winter nights in the USA and that part of the world who were going through winter at the time to spend their evenings.
I am half way through Boundaries and have got Married to a Bedouin on reserve. The latter is about a New Zealand women who went to Jordan on a site seeing trip with her friend, met, converted to Islam, and married and lived as a a Bedouin in Petra where they lived and had children. Her husband later died. It is a true story but as she states she left out the not too good bits in her life there and focused on the positive things.
Married to a Bedouin - By (author) Marguerite van Geldermalsen
Boundaries: When to Say Yes, How to Say No to Take Control of Your Life by Dr Henry Cloud and Dr John Townsend

Ask the author where you can get it from.
