Do I Need Boundaries?: Seeking to Please God by Learning to Say No

Counselor Jim Newheiser helps readers learn to use biblical wisdom when setting boundaries within their relationships with family, friends, coworkers, and churches.

The inability to say “no” can result in overcommitment, leaving us exhausted and even bitter toward those who make demands on our time and energy. Similarly, compromising our beliefs to keep a relationship can draw us away from who God has made us to be and what he has called us to do.
