- Abstract
- Honor and shame have the capacity to define, heal and empower the mission of the church to individuals and institutions. Shame can be unhealthy when it takes the form of abusive 'shaming' behavior. This thesis examines honor/shame from theological, biblical, socio-anthropological, and family systems perspectives. Interventions include Bible study, worship, a task force to study the history and mission of the church, group norms for church officers, and a book review/discussion group. These interventions or similar ones tailor-made for a particular congregation can be applied effectively in other locations. The quality of relationships within a shame-based church family can improve.
