The Mentored Life: From Individualism to Personhood

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Houston, James M. / Houston, J. M., PUBLISHER: NavPress Publishing Group, In our contemporary society, it is widely accepted in the search for self to seek the advice of a mentor. From upper management consultants to the well-meaning friend, mentors are readily available. But as Houston writes, "We can choose the pursuit of self-knowledge for enhancing one's professional ambitions, or we can go beyond ourselves in ever-living faith as disciples of the Word." This book is not a guide to mentoring. Rather, Houston thoroughly dismantles and exposes cracks in the philosophies used throughout the history of mentoring. Individualism, stoicism, even psychotherapy all fall short of God's ultimate plan. The Mentored Life reveals that it isn't about making the individual better. Instead, through Christian discipleship, individuals must humbly seek Christ, who alone can lead us to whole personhood.
