I have friends who are taken by a fellow who, is a Christian, but hes almost like "Christian" version of Tony Robbins... He is encouraging them to "look inside", to really "grasp your past", to "wrestle with events that made you who you are"...
In other words, he seeking like "inner healing". But, I find there surely is some good to be derived, HOWEVER it just seems to put man at the center, it seems to be using Jesus as a guru to "healing", it seems to be really majoring on a minor... My question then is:
1. Is there a place for this? If so, what does it look like and whats the scriptural warrant?
2. What good and bad can come from really "looking in" and examining (not in the sense of "Examine" before communion) one own self and past and thoughts and such...?
