Breaking free is only half the battle.
Most teaching on codependency focuses only on how to break free from unhealthy relationships and establish independence and self-esteem.
But "the freedom that moves us toward intimacy," says Nancy Groom, "is not merely freedom from codependency, with its fear and loneliness-it's also freedom to love, without control and manipulation."
In this thorough and nontechnical guide to assessment and recovery, Nancy Groom takes you beyond simply escaping codependency. She goes on to help you tackle the tough questions you'll face as you emerge from destructive relationships, including:

• What does healthy intimacy with God and others look like?
• What does Scripture say about self-sufficiency and autonomy?
• How do you gain the right perspective on self-worth?
• What are the benefits-and costs-of true change?

So if you want to escape a way of life that keeps intimacy, authenticity, and spiritual vitality in bondage, and discover how you can bond to God and others with passion and boldness, join Nancy Groom for a powerful journey-from escaping codependency to embracing biblical love.
