Reviews"Though shame is seldom discussed in churches, it's an emotion that all Christians deal with--most often poorly. We tend to deny or ignore it, which doesn't work and in turn causes more humiliation and pushes us further on the downward spiral of shame. Thankfully, Christian psychologist Mark Baker explains a better way. Rich in detail and depth, Overcoming Shame will also help people deal with guilt, resentment, envy, jealousy, and even narcissism. I know of no one who couldn't benefit from this insightful book, and I especially recommend it to pastors and other church leaders in order to help people defeat a problem that has destroyed individuals, families, and communities since, well, we emerged from Eden." -- Rick Stedman, Pastor and author of 31 Surprising Reasons to Believe in God, "Dr. Mark Baker marries faith and modern psychology into a book certain to open both the mind and soul. His brilliant insights are grounded in science and undeniably imbued with God's inspiration." -- Doug Richardson, Screenwriter and novelist; movies include Die Hard 2, Bad Boys , and Welcome to Mooseport, "If left unchecked, shame becomes a malignant cancer that extends itself from personal pain to potential violence to self and others. Dr. Baker not only rigorously addresses the destructive power of shame, but he also provides the only guaranteed step-by-step process for being eternally healed from this progressive source of internal and external life-threatening hurt and pain. The timing is right for Dr. Baker's exceptionally well-written book Overcoming Shame . This book is a must-read, a solution for a time such as this." -- Mack Harnden, PhD, Clinical psychologist, founder and president of the Forgiveness Institute, " Overcoming Shame is a great read written by an experienced psychotherapist. Dr. Baker draws on many concepts from Scripture and positive psychology--humility, mercy, forgiveness, compassion, and love, to name a few. This book will lift your head, lift your spirits, and lift your eyes toward Jesus." -- Everett L. Worthington, Jr, PhD, Professor of psychology, Virginia Commonwealth University, Author of 30+ books on forgiveness and related areas including Heroic Humility (with Scott Allison)
