Hi I am wondering if anyone has read the book, "Emotionally Healthy Spirituality", by Peter Scazzero.

What do you think of it?

Yes, I have. I think it's a very good book, with a needed message. Other than joy, Christians, I think, tend not to put much stock in the emotions, but they are important in becoming a healthy, whole person.

My own experience is that emotions have been treated as being "suspect," and therefore not a serious indicator of one's spirituality. This couldn't be further from the truth.

At some point, I want to use this book for a class at church.

I am part way through, so far the ideas are good, It does seem a bit like another formula.
I will keep reading and see.

Thank you.

Could you elaborate a bit on this, please? It's been over a year since I read it. Thanks.

Yeah I just read it a few weeks ago. I enjoyed it, it had some great concepts and ideas.

Just wondering, have you read Finish Strong by Dan Green. (finishstrong.com)

I really liked it and was wondering if anyone had read it to hear their comments/concerns/critiques..etc
