Биография и Путь Автора
John Townsend built his career at the intersection of psychology, theology, and leadership. He earned a B.A. in psychology from North Carolina State University, a master’s in theology from Dallas Theological Seminary, and a Ph.D. in clinical psychology from Biola University’s Rosemead School. A decisive turning point came while he was a seminary student preparing for missionary work in Africa: participation in a growth group convinced him that trust, vulnerability, and strong relationships could alter the course of a life. He then moved more fully toward counseling and organizational work, later helping lead a healthcare organization with operations in 35 cities across the western United States.
