There is no joy in doing everything for another and calling it love. Even if you believe you are making intelligent choices. It's simpler to do it myself! He needs my help! I just want to keep the peace! If I don't do it, no one will! The burden of codependency will cause untold misery in your life and in the lives of your family members. Is codependency at the root of your unhappiness? Let the doctors Of the Meier New Life Clinic and The Minirth Clinic walk you through their ten proven stages to recovery from codependency, introducing a new dimension: the important stage of seeing God's unconditional love as the answer to your deepest emotional needs and your hunger for love.
These bestselling doctors walk you through their ten proven stages to recovery from codependency that results from external circustances. Humans are susceptible to codependency because of our sinful tendency to use defense mechanisms to fool ourselves. In codependent relationships, deceitful games are played, and important Christian principles are often taken out of context and abused. God wants us to have healthy relationships with a balance between being dependent and independent. The doctors describe how the most effective means of overcoming codependent relationships is to establish or deepen a relationship with Christ Himself. They describe the causes of codependency, pointing out the factors that perpetuate it, and lead readers through their ten stages of recovery.
