They arranged for a retreat on Lake Michigan, where we passed this vision on to other Zon- dervan staff members. Sandy Vander Zicht directed the editorial process and ?ne- tuned the manuscript into a book that is more graceful, more precise, and easier to read and understand. Dan Runyon cut the book down to a manageable size. Dave Anderson translated this book into a video curriculum. Sealy Yates encouraged and supported us throughout the whole process, from contract to ?nished book. 7 01.Boundaries 5/14/01 12:36 PM Page 8 01.Boundaries 5/14/01 12:36 PM Page 9 PART ONE WHAT ARE BOUNDARIES? 9 01.Boundaries 5/14/01 12:36 PM Page 10
