PART 3

How do we handle dealing with the narcissists in our lives?  With grace, compassion, and distance.  After all, there is nothing we can do to change their views, ways, or attitudes.  Only the external force of God can do that.  While it is important to seek out knowledge as to how these people got this way, to this extreme, this is their lifestyle.  Narcissists use those around them--their children, spouse, co-workers, or even church-goers--to secure their place on high.

"Sociopath:" Sociopaths Are Different from Psychopaths

How Sociopaths Are Different from Psychopaths
Both are forms of antisocial personality disorder

By Marcia Purse | Medically reviewed by a board-certified physician

"Sociopath" is a term people use, often arbitrarily, to describe someone who is apparently without conscience. In most cases, it's a description blithely tossed out to label a person as being either hateful or hate-worthy.

BIG "C" versus LITTLE "c"

from The New Dictionary of Biblical Theology: 

Although the church is often thought to be a human institution, a social arrangement to facilitate the interests and mission of like-minded people, as indeed it is, the Bible presents it as primarily a consequence of the character and purposes of the trinitarian God. Its origins lie in God’s desire to have a people of his own (Deut. 7:6). It is a community of those who acknowledge Jesus Christ as Lord (1 Cor. 12:3). It is a fellowship where the Holy Spirit lives (1 Cor. 3:16), directing and energizing its community life.  

In my first post about Christian women and their role in the family, I mentioned the aspect of later talking about Christian women's role in the Church--big "C".

We've been homeschooling our children for many years now.  As with most homeschool parents, the first few years, you seek out others who are taking this same path of education at home to get support, guidance, and advice on this journey.
