The Boundaries book series has transformed marriages, families, organizations, and individuals around the world, with 4 million copies sold.
Some people focus so much on being loving and unselfish that they forget their own limits and limitations. That’s why the ability to set clear boundaries is essential to a healthy, balanced lifestyle. In relationships, boundaries define who we are and who we are not, which impacts every part of our lives.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT TO LEARN FROM THIS BOOK?

|---|---|---|
Boundary Setting Is a Large Part of MaturingWe can’t really love until we have boundaries—otherwise we love out of compliance or guilt. And we can’t really be productive at work without boundaries; otherwise we’re so busy following others’ agendas that we’re double-minded and unstable (James 1:8). The goal is to have a character structure that has boundaries and that can set limits on self and others at the appropriate times. |
Boundaries Define UsThey define what is me and what is not me. A boundary shows me where I end and someone else begins, leading me to a sense of ownership. Knowing what I am to own and take responsibility for gives me freedom. If I know where my yard begins and ends, I am free to do with it what I like. Taking responsibility for my life opens up many different options. However, if I do not “own” my life, my choices and options become very limited. |
The Law of PowerTo see another person as the problem to be fixed is to give that person power over you and your well-being. Because you cannot change another person, you are out of control. The real problem lies in how you are relating to the problem person. You are the one in pain, and only you have the power to fix it. Many people have found immense relief in the thought that they have no control over another person and that they must focus on changing their reactions to that person. |

Great Book!
I purchased this book along with the workbook for our 6 week long ladies bible study over none other than Boundaries. While studying this book, I felt as though the authors integrate psychological insights with Christian principles, making it super easy for all readers to understand from all diverse backgrounds. Although this book was originally published back in 1992 the context by Dr's Henry Cloud and John Townsend emphasize how boundaries are defined as where one person ends and another begins. The teaching within these chapters serve as guidelines for acceptable behavior, actions, and interactions not only with ourselves but also among our relationships. Whether you are struggling with asserting yourself at work, maintaining healthy boundaries with family members or simply seeking greater self- awareness, I highly recommend reading and working through the workbook "Boundaries" as it offers vaulable guidance into taking control of our lives.
