C. Terry Warner

C. Terry Warner is an American academic, author and business consultant. He wrote the book, "Bonds That Make Us Free", and founded Arbinger Consulting and Training based on his academic work on the foundations of human behavior. In writings and seminars, Warner argues that individuals are responsible for their own actions, including their own feelings, and therefore have the power to free their relationships with others from negativity. Warner holds a Ph.D. from Yale University and is a professor of philosophy at Brigham Young University. [ [http://philosophy.byu.edu/fac_FullTime.htm Philsophy Department - full-time faculty] .] In 1967 he joined the faculty at Brigham Young University, where he has served as chair of the Philosophy Department, director of the Honors Program, and dean of the College of General Studies. [Bergin, 2002] He was a visiting senior member of Linacre College, Oxford University.

"Bonds that Make Us Free"

Warner's book, "Bonds that Make Us Free: Healing Our Relationships, Coming to Ourselves," is a self-help book that focuses on repairing damaged relationships. In a review in "Journal of Marital and Family Therapy," Tom Milholland says that Warner "uses an amazing blend of philosophy, theology, and psychology to provide insight and solutions..."Tom Milholland (2004), "Review," "Journal of Marital and Family Therapy," Vol. 30, No. 2, p. 248.] The key concept underlying the book is faith-based—"to do exactly what we sense is right toward all living creatures, including God...pursuing a life of goodness." (p. 319) Warner says that individuals must reconcile conflicts between their beliefs and their actions to find peace within themselves and reconciliation with others. When people choose their own bonds, they can be the bonds that make them free. These bonds also help people to connect with others and to understand themselves.

The Education in Zion Project

Dr. Warner is currently the exhibit director of the Education in Zion project at Brigham Young University. The project traces the history of education in the LDS Church, beginning with the spiritual and secular education of Joseph Smith, and continuing through the foundation of educational institutions throughout Church's Kirtland and Nauvoo years, its migration to the Mountain West, and its ultimate world-wide expansion.

The exhibit will likely open to the public sometime during the summer of 2008.
