Description

Professor Thorne shows convincingly that the spiritual needs and yearnings of many clients presenting themselves to secular counsellors can no longer be ignored, trivialized or pathologized. The book constitutes an impassioned plea both to person-centred therapists to acknowledge the centrality of spiritual issues for many of their clients and also to Christians to embrace the richness of their spiritual tradition without becoming entangled in the death-dealing complexity of religious and institutional power-mongering. This is a hopeful book that could only have been written by someone whose particular vocation seems to be to live with tensions and paradoxes and to find there a greater freedom and a richer resourcefulness.
