I thought this book was significantly better than Scazzero's [b:Emotionally Healthy Spirituality: Unleash a Revolution in Your Life In Christ 249014 Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Unleash a Revolution in Your Life In Christ Peter Scazzero https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1380855746l/249014.SX50.jpg 241288]. Similarly to EHS, this book was used as part of a church-wide series, but unlike the former, Emotionally Healthy Discipleship felt like new ground in that it focused primarily on the individual as a disciple of Jesus (rather than transforming the way one would disciple others). Not only that, but moving from the I've-got-all-my-ish-together Christianity to more complete vulnerability within the church community, especially in leadership, but applicable for laypeople as well.EHD felt more practical/applicable, which was one of my big complaints about EHS; this one was also more rooted in biblical scripture.Chapters:Be before you doFollow the crucified, not the Americanized, JesusEmbrace God's gift of limitsDiscover the treasures buried in grief and lossMake love the measure of maturityBreak the power of the pastLead out of weakness and vulnerabilityI underlined a ton of stuff in this book, and took copious sermon notes, neither of which are things I normally do, if that tells you anything. Really good, useful stuff.
