Have you been hurt, abused, abandoned, used, and taken advantage of in your relationships? Did it happen more than once and even on many occasions? Can you recognize the pattern in choosing friends, dates, employers, and romantic involvements? If you are a Christian, do you find it safe to open up your heart and entrust your life to fellow believers and the church?

Safe People by Drs. Henry Cloud and John Townsend is another excellent Christian resource specifically written to address the issues of finding safe and unsafe people in our lives. Drs. Henry Cloud and John Townsend are practicing Clinical Psychologists and at the same time international speakers, best-selling authors, and anointed ministers with the calling to transform lives and mentor people on how to improve relationships, mature in character, receive freedom from negative mindsets, attitudes, behaviors, and addictions, to be molded into the image of God and to walk into our God-given destiny.

Safe People by Drs. Henry Cloud and John Townsend is divided into three sections:

Part One – Chapters 1-4- Unsafe People – Learn about unsafe people and their 20 distinguishing traits.

Part Two – Chapters 5-8- Do I Attract Unsafe People? – Trace the root of choosing the wrong people and learn how to repair this issue.

Part Three – Chapters 9-13 – Safe People – Discover the identifying traits of safe people, how to find and relate to them.

Safe People by Cloud and Townsend is a suitable Christian resource for personal, ministry, and church use. Drs. Henry Cloud and John Townsend offer expert advice to people struggling with relationships. Safe People book and Safe People workbook are personal in tone and approach, not scientific, clinical or academic. Even non-Christians can benefit from reading this and more than that, it can serve as a tool to draw people to Christ as each chapter includes Scriptural verses and stories. Drs. Henry Cloud and John Townsend documents true-to-life stories of people asking for their professional help and personal ministration.

Safe People is at par with their best-selling book, Boundaries, which transformed millions of readers worldwide. Imagine how many broken lives, broken hearts, and broken relationships will be healed and redeemed if all clinical psychologists, psychotherapists, psychiatrists, counselors, coaches, and ministers will apply the principles and godly wisdom in Safe People to their patients, clients, and churches. There will certainly be a global healing for hurting people.
