“Sometimes recovery, healing, and spiritual growth are talked about as if they are three different topics. What I like about John’s work is that he brings them all together, and we find that no matter what our issues, we are all on the same path.”

 
*Dr. Henry Cloud, author of Boundaries and Integrity*
