Self-Love, Self-Care, Self-ish?

Topics include: - How modern innovations have created mental health problems - If Jesus practiced self-care - Where "Jesus, Others, Yourself" often goes wrong - Does "Love your neighbor as yourself" require us to develop self-love? - How therapeutic terminology gets corrupted to legitimize bad habits
