Über diesen Titel

Why does narcissism seem to thrive in our churches?

We've seen the news stories and heard the rumors. Maybe we ourselves have been hurt by a narcissistic church leader. It's easy to throw the term around and diagnose others from afar. But what is narcissism, really? And how does it infiltrate the church?

Chuck DeGroat has been counseling pastors with Narcissistic Personality Disorder, as well as those wounded by narcissistic leaders and systems, for over 20 years. He knows firsthand the devastation narcissism leaves in its wake and how insidious and painful it is. In When Narcissism Comes to Church, DeGroat takes a close look at narcissism, not only in ministry leaders but also in church systems. He offers compassion and hope for those affected by its destructive power and imparts wise counsel for churches looking to heal from its systemic effects.

DeGroat also offers hope for narcissists themselves - not by any shortcut, but by the long, slow road of genuine recovery, possible only through repentance and trust in the humble gospel of Jesus.

DeGroat show's a connection between the Enneagramm and Narcissim, wich is helpful to understand the dynamics & patterns of Narcissism in the different Types. He shows a way that, step by step, one by one, the church can be restored to live again from the cross, and not our western culture & distorted values.
A good read for every pastor, councilor and leader.
It helps to read this book with an open mind and self reflection.

Light on a hidden subject

I really liked how the author of this book uses empathy as a lens through which we can approach narcissism. Also I was quite surprised that each of us has some amount of narcissism inside, just we have to be aware whether it is toxic or not and how to treat it. This book also reveals the sad truth about the state many churches are in nowadays. It also offers help and hope of healing both to churches and individuals.

Highly reccomend

I personally am not a fan of the enneagram as it is very much a part of the progressive church that is not godly. However, the study and experience in this book over the topic of narcissistic people and church leaders is worth your time to read about.
I needed this book, thank you.

A needed resource
