Book Description
A deeper probe into relationships starts with our heart's desires At last, a 'relationship book' that looks past what separates us to examine what connects us! Dr. Mark and Debra Laaser go to the heart of the matter. Instead of focusing on how to sidestep or compensate for perceived differences, they dig deeper, to the core of our souls, to examine how the basic desires and needs of all people make us more alike than different. The Seven Desires of Every Heart explores the common desires God gives you---to be heard, affirmed, blessed, safe, touched, chosen, and included. Using stories, Biblical references, and sound psychological principles, the Laasers explain each desire and show us how we seek it and what it feels like to have it truly fulfilled. You also will learn healthy ways to embody these desires in your relationships. You will be given the tools you need to start repairing and rebuilding relationships and developing new skills for creating emotional and spiritual intimacy.

Say What Your Longing Heart Desires
Author: Niloofar Haeri
Publisher: Stanford University Press
ISBN: 1503614255
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 245
Book Description
Following the 1979 revolution, the Iranian government set out to Islamize society. Muslim piety had to be visible, in personal appearance and in action. Iranians were told to pray, fast, and attend mosques to be true Muslims. The revolution turned questions of what it means to be a true Muslim into a matter of public debate, taken up widely outside the exclusive realm of male clerics and intellectuals. Say What Your Longing Heart Desires offers an elegant ethnography of these debates among a group of educated, middle-class women whose voices are often muted in studies of Islam. Niloofar Haeri follows them in their daily lives as they engage with the classical poetry of Rumi, Hafez, and Saadi, illuminating a long-standing mutual inspiration between prayer and poetry. She recounts how different forms of prayer may transform into dialogues with God, and, in turn, Haeri illuminates the ways in which believers draw on prayer and ritual acts as the emotional and intellectual material through which they think, deliberate, and debate.

Desires of the Heart
Author: Catherine E. Frerichs
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780984229833
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 286
Book Description
"Desires of the Heart" tells the story of two mid-20th century American Lutheran missionaries-Albert and Sylvia Frerichs-and their 40-year call to work in what is now Papua New Guinea. The author, the couple's eldest daughter Catherine, draws extensively from their letters and journals to tell an unvarnished story of idealism, ambition, and sacrifice for a call. Focusing on the period 1937-1951, through her father's personal letters, Frerichs brings us along to witness his "first contact" experiences and early miss-steps as a well-meaning colonialist. Even though her mother lived in New Guinea for only the last five years of that period, through Sylvia's personal letters, Frerichs shines a light on the complex and sometimes conflicting roles of a young missionary wife and mother. With an unflinching eye, she also shows her parents' evolution into people who saw the New Guineans as equals. Her parents' decision to work in this remote part of the world was not without consequences for their children. Frerichs's own account includes difficult reflections on coming to terms with her own place in her parents' lives. Through them, she offers readers insights into its themes of love and loss, and possibilities for healing.
