The Depleted Self: Sin in a Narcissistic Age

Forsideomslag
Fortress Press, 1. jan. 1993 - 176 sider
Although narcissism may appear dormant in the 1990s, clinical research on narcissism shows that behind a grandiose, exhibitionistic side lies a shame-ridden half of self-loathing, unworthiness, and depression. Capps says that traditional theologies of guilt are unable to address those gripped by shame and makes a case for a different pastoral approach in counseling and ministry.
