NEW SERIES! Should Christians focus on themselves Conversation with Dr Jen Brickman

Should Christians focus on themselves?

Central to the Christian faith are positive messages about loving our neighbour, honouring one another, living sacrificially, looking to the interests of others…but this can sometimes lead to a feeling that it is selfish or self-indulgent to direct our attention towards ourselves.  Going to therapy can feel like a bad thing for Christians to do. So we wanted to think together as psychologists about self-focus and how that sits with a biblical perspective. Join Jen Brickman and Ruth Holt in looking at how Christians can think about this topic.
This 1st part of the conversation focuses on 'how' we focus on ourselves’. We open up the discussion describing different types of self focus and consider factors that can make a healthy self-awareness difficult.
