About this title

Synopsis

Profound changes are taking place as people awaken to the expreience of the Christ in themselves, and in significant human encounter. As tradition fades, individual and social paths of growth emerge. These are helped by building relationships through helping conversations, through dialogue, through exploring heart-felt questions which can lead to liberating personal insights. This book shows how such dialogues can transform relationships and build community. But real meeting and healing conversations take effort. There is light and darkness in encounter. There is sympathy and antipathy in relationships. Do we meet ourselves or the other? With helpful insights into building relationships, the book shows how true encounter can be fostered. Such work may be strengthened by healing powers which help open up the space for community building. The book should be of interest to counsellors, doctors, priests, social development facilitators, trainers, people in study groups seeking to deepen relationships and anyone interested in Scott Peck's ideas.
