Narcissistic Pastors: Personality Disorders in the Church of Jesus Christ - Paperback

This book delves into the topic of narcissism among pastors within a psychological and Christian framework. It examines the Bible, analyzing texts from both the Old and New Testaments. The discussion encompasses the tactics of narcissists, the phenomenon of narcissistic pastors, collective narcissism in families and congregations, and the healing process for those affected by narcissistic leaders, relating these to the concept of the end-times. Interwoven are analyses of biblical figures who exhibited narcissistic traits, including Cain, Nimrod, Jacob, Jezebel, Samson, Saul, the Pharisees, and the Sadducees. The book aims to honor God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit by revealing Satan's strategies of pride, control, and selfishness that threaten the church and its followers. It serves to assist the church in identifying and addressing false prophets, bishops, pastors, elders, teachers, and evangelists who exhibit narcissism. Ultimately, the book seeks to support those harmed by such individuals within the church or denomination, providing a pathway to healing and completeness.
