Riassunto

A Two book set:When Compassion Turns to EnablingCompassionate people enjoy helping others, but when compassion turns to enabling, that help becomes destructive. Enabling prevents others from acting in a caring, responsible manner. Compulsive rescuing and enabling can so overtake an enabler’s life that there seems no way out. Families become dysfunctional. Relationships are destroyed in the process. Information in this book will help you identify enabling and recognize the effects and root causes of enabling. Whether you are an enabler, the one who is being enabled, or the one dealing with family members who are out of control, you will learn how and why unacceptable thinking, attitudes, and behaviors must be changed. This book provides easy to understand, practical Bible-based answers and strategies to heal and restore your family. Your lives are about to change!When Enabling and Alzheimer’s Collide Both Alzheimer’s disease and enabling are destructive forces, but when they collide, the results are overwhelming. Both problems are experienced by thousands of people every day. After reading this true story, you will understand: Enabling must be stopped while the enabler still has clarity of mind. Once dementia or Alzheimer’s disease is present, there will be no way to protect the enabler from the one who has been enabled. This narrative is not a composite of many families; it is the true story of one family. The names have been changed to protect the identity of the individuals. As you read this amazing story, you will clearly understand God’s desire and willingness to free your family from the bondage of enabling. Your family’s situation may seem hopeless, but with God, all things are possible (Luke 1:37). This book provides help for desperate families who are caught between Alzheimer’s and the dysfunction of enabling.

Informazioni sull?autore

During my 32 years of teaching school, God has given me a passion for helping Christian families learn to walk in the abundant life God originally planned for them. I am not a psychiatrist or psychologist. I am a retired schoolteacher with a Master’s Degree in Education and a Doctorate in Ministry. I have been a guest speaker in many churches where I shared practical strategies to restore Christian families through Bible-based parenting. Over the years, I taught students in grades K-8 and worked with their families. These experiences provided insights into many enabling situations. I also gained much knowledge about enabling through experiences in my personal family, in the families of friends and colleagues, and in churches where I have had the privilege to minister. My observations include individuals who have been enabled from early childhood into late adulthood. Seeing the desperation of these families, I have prayed for discernment to understand root causes and Bible-based solutions to stop the destruction caused by enabling. I pray that the insights God has given me will help you and your family break free from a life controlled by dysfunction. May you see God’s purpose fulfilled in each family member throughout the generations that follow. Visit www.marywillock.net to learn more about the author.
