Marriage Rebranded

ISBN: 9780802411839
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
It didn't take long for Tyler to realize he had no idea how to be married. When Tyler and Analee got married, they read marriage books, learned about each other's personality and habits, and exhausted three-step relational formulas. Yet a year and a half after their wedding, they had fallen into a pattern of fighting and unhappiness. Tyler knew he and his wife needed more than formulas and counseling sessions. They needed a vision for marriage that extended beyond just finding happiness and falling in love. They wanted a vision that dealt with the realities of life and gave them a picture of marriage worth fighting for. As a business professional who helps companies "rebrand" when their image doesn't match up with their identity, Tyler realized that marriage has an image that doesn't match up to what God designed it to be. Marriage Rebranded will help you replace four modern misconceptions about marriage with more timeless perspectives enlightened by biblical, personal, and historical studies. We need to rethink our modern brand of matrimony. It's time for us to develop a new vision for marriage-a vision that's worth fighting for.

Why Are People Afraid of Love?
Author: Rev. Tony K. Thomas
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1973648318
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 166
Book Description
There is a popular song that says, “What the world needs now is love, sweet love,” and while the world and even Christians seek more love, so many souls are falling into the trap of being afraid to love. Yet God’s desire is for his children to learn the truth of his nature—that he is love. Why are people afraid of love? addresses this fear of loving and being loved, especially in this generation in which there is a worldwide epidemic of failed relationships. Author Rev. Tony K. Thomas invites you to look inside your soul and make some necessary personal adjustments when it comes to relationship building, by simply asking the question, “Am I afraid of love?” The answer can be revealing, as God’s Spirit reveals to your heart and soul his love and your ability to love. God wants to remove our fear of loving, and he will help you during this season of singleness. If you have had failed relationships or encounters, or if you are married now but didn’t get off to the smooth start you were expecting after the “I do,” Why are people afraid of love? can remind you of the origin and power of love that comes from above. As 1 John 4:18 says, perfect love will show fear the door.

The Highly Sensitive Person in Love
Author: Elaine N. Aron, Ph.D.
Publisher: Harmony
ISBN: 0307567680
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 267
Book Description
Do you fall in love hard, but fear intimacy? Are you sick of being told that you are “too sensitive”? Do you struggle to respect a less-sensitive partner? Or have you given up on love, afraid of being too sensitive or shy to endure its wounds? Statistics show that 50 percent of what determines divorce is genetic temperament. And, if you are one of the 20 percent of people who are born highly sensitive, the risk of an unhappy relationship is especially high. Your finely tuned nervous system, which picks up on subtleties and reflects deeply, would be a romantic asset if both you and your partner understood you better. But without that understanding, your sensitivity is likely to be making your close relationships painful and complicated. Based on Elaine N. Aron’s groundbreaking research on temperament and intimacy, The Highly Sensitive Person in Love offers practical help for highly sensitive people seeking happier, healthier romantic relationships. From low-stress fighting to sensitive sexuality, the book offers a wealth of practical advice on making the most of all personality combinations. Complete with illuminating self-tests and the results of the first survey ever done on sex and temperament, The Highly Sensitive Person in Love will help you discover a better way of living and loving.
