Learn to Love: Guide to Healing Your Disappointing Love Life is a book about learning to improve your love life. After 30 years of clinical research and treatment of patients with unhealthy love lives, I now recognize that most people are not in control of their love lives. Why? Because most people don't know what they've learned about and from the love relationships in the course of their lives. Love relationships that started in their families of origin the moment they were born.

If what you've learned was unhealthy, you could be unwittingly making the same love life mistakes over and over again because of what you've learned. Learn to Love will show you how to identify what you've learned about love relationships, how to unlearn what is unhealthy, and practice something new, healthy, and the opposite of what you've learned, now as a corrective in your adult love life. This simple learning formulate has helped many of my patients begin taking control of their own love lives, as well as helping me improve my own love life.

I Choose Brave

Languages : en
Pages : 179
Book Description
What if fear is the new brave? That's the question that you need answered if you are living afraid. Finding courage begins with fear itself--fear of the Lord. I Choose Brave reveals a countercultural plan to help you where you are--knee-deep in fears of parenting, the future, your marriage, and a world that feels unstable. When you're feeling fearful, the last thing you need is a social-media meme telling you to simply "power through" your fears. In I Choose Brave, Katie Westenberg digs deep into Scripture and shows that finding the courage to overcome our fears must start with fear of the Lord. Hundreds of passages speak to this foundational truth, yet we have somehow relegated them to antiquity. In sharing her own compelling story of facing her worst fear, Katie serves up theological truth with relatable application. In this book, you will · discover a fresh take on an old truth that displaces fear once and for all · understand why the culture's idea of "fearlessness" is a farce · access the holy courage you were made for With this new knowledge comes tremendous freedom. Hidden in the cleft of the Rock, the One truly worthy of our fear, you will begin to understand the only path to real courage.

Book Description
"Twenty-five years ago in April 1994, a savage campaign of genocide was unleashed against the Tutsis of Rwanda. The violence of a hundred days left as many as a million people dead. This personal narrative tells the story of two survivors--Jean Bosco and his fiancée Christine. While most of their family members perished, they managed to escape to what is now famous as the Hotel Rwanda. Their story of survival is at once a love story and a harrowing inside look at what happens when a country is overrun by evil. But it is also a story of faith--an effort to find God in the midst of horror--and of their subsequent struggles to find meaning, healing, and reconciliation"--

Prevailing Love

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 99
Book Description
Prevailing Love is all about what to do when everything else has failed, a common reason why our world is littered with bloody issues. It emphasizes the kind of love which enables individuals to forgive one another and live better lives. It also shows the different kinds of secular love and their weaknesses. It then points out that prevailing love is what we need to live better in this world. All other kinds of love have been tried by mankind but the results have left mankind heartbroken and unhappy. Much effort has not been made to learn and practice prevailing love. Without God's kind of love, our world and all relationships will continue to be shaky, bitter, and tumultuous. This book is divided into seven distinct chapters. Chapter 1 introduces the reader to the topic of love and a world without prevailing love, the main reason we have so many local and international human disengagements, hatred, and wars. Chapter 2 examines the limitations of secular love and explains why it cannot solve our social ills. Chapter 3 introduces prevailing love, its definitions and ramifications, and why it is the only option that can make a real positive difference in our world. Chapter 4 examines how one can develop prevailing love for dealing with personal, family, and societal social issues. Chapter 5 examines true life examples of some individuals who have lived in prevailing love. Chapter 6 discusses selected benefits of prevailing love if it is applied in our society today. Chapter 7 is designed to help people who do not have a personal relationship with God to be born again.
