In this episode, Lysa TerKeurst; Licensed Professional Counselor Jim Cress; and Proverbs 31 Ministries' Director of Theological Research, Dr. Joel Muddamalle, discuss how to have a confrontational conversation with a narcissist — without being too confrontational. As a reminder, these episodes are not to victimize a person who struggles with narcissism but rather to shed light on this very real but often overlooked topic in the Christian world.

Narcissism is a personality disorder that requires a medical diagnosis. Proverbs 31 Ministries does not condone labeling another person with a personality disorder. Please see the links below if you need help finding a Christian counselor.

Helpful links from Lysa TerKeurst and the Proverbs 31 Team:

- Not only is it OK for us to identify concerning behaviors and harmful actions against us, but it is biblical. Download Lysa’s free guide “Is This Normal? 15 Red Flags You May be Missing in Your Relationships” here: [ Ссылка ]

For further reading on narcissism, Lysa and Jim recommend “The Wizard of Oz and other Narcissists” and “The Object of My Affection Is in My Reflection.” Please note, these are not biblically based books but would be helpful if you’re struggling to cope with a narcissist.

If you need help processing tough trust issues, we recommend finding a Christian counselor you can trust. The American Association of Christian Counselors is a resource you can trust to find the right counselor for your specific circumstances. [ Ссылка ]
