How Power Works--and How to Stop Its Abuse
Power has a God-given role in human relationships and institutions, but it can lead to abuse when used in unhealthy ways. Speaking into current #MeToo and #ChurchToo conversations, this book shows that the body of Christ desperately needs a deep and clear-eyed understanding of how power actually works.
Internationally recognized psychologist Diane Langberg offers a clinical and theological framework for understanding
● how power operates and the forms it takes
● the effects of the abuse of power
● how power can be restored to its God-given place in relationships and institutions
This book not only helps Christian leaders identify and resist abusive systems but also shows how they can use power to protect the vulnerable in their midst.
