摘要

本文以靈修交談的立場，來思考在人性「自由與束縛」之間，如何進行諮商的陪伴歷程。我們從基督徒，特別從新教的觀點，以路德、潘霍華、C. Colson三位不同時代的新教基督徒的體驗，來看他們在自由與束縛間的掙扎與釋放。他們三位都在耶穌基督裡，體會到基督徒的自由滋味，不論是距今五百年前的路德；二次大戰時的潘霍華；或甫於2012年4月去世的Colson，在經歷水門事件被控時，他內心的掙扎煎熬，後來在基督裡所得著的釋放、自由。從基督徒靈修的角度，我們在三位不同時代背景的新教基督徒身上，看到在靈修中，他們的生命從黑暗到光明，脫離束縛得到自由的喜悅，即使面對恐嚇、監禁、生命的危險，他們深深體會到在聖神內所得的恩寵與平安。

This article points out how to accompany the needs during counseling in view of human freedom and bondage through spiritual conversation from the viewpoint of the Christian, especially Protestantism. We took three Protestants from different periods, M. Luther, Dietrich Bonhoeffer and Charles Colson, their experience of life to see how to deal with the struggle and bondage when they faced the cognitive dissonance.They were all in Christ and felt such a sense of real freedom to be a Christian no matter what's the time they were living, like Luther lived about five hounded years ago far from now, Bonhoeffer experienced the suffering of World War Two, and Charles Colson who was dead in April last year suffered through the Watergate Scandal. During that period of time, Colson was tortured inside himself, yet in Christ he was released and free from the bondage of his mind finally.We've learned the way of spirituality from these three Protestants who got through the threat, imprisonment and life-threatening but did experience the work that was done by Holy Spirit and have peace of mind in Jesus Christ.
