If you are reading Scezzaro, I recommend Emotionally Healthy Spirituality. EHC is about context, and EHS is practical. What does this look like in everyday lives and in a church that is committed to Emotionally Healthy Spirituality? That is answered in EHS.

2JR, Try Feldhahn’s “For Women Only” as well … to see if she pegs you as a man … I did and learned some things … It was an interesting picture of the state of men in our society that I found good (need for respect vs. love in men) and somewhat uncomfortable at times (kind of like when Faye and I went to a marriage seminar and I discovered I was the only man who wasn’t thinking about how to have “physical intimacy” with his wife every day).
