The Importance of Codependence in Ministry

If I'm not healthy myself, I will use him to meet my own needs. And I will feed him to make him dependent upon me because my codependence, I need him to be. So that really has to do with the health of the person. If you can't do your own work around your own story, you will have to create people that are both codependent with you and dependent upon you in unhealthy ways. You won't love people, you'll use people. But you will get your needs met from them,. And eventually, it's going to eat you.
