The Flirtation Experiment
Author: Lisa Jacobson
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
ISBN: 0785246894
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 222
Book Description
From popular Christian voices Lisa Jacobson and Phylicia Masonheimer, The Flirtation Experiment inspires you to strengthen your marriage with a fun, unexpected approach that leads to the depth, richness, and closeness you desire. Romance novels, Hallmark movies . . . the immense demand for romantic stories reveals a deep, unsatisfied longing that can be found in many marriages, but does it have to be that way? Is it possible that the best marriage has to offer can grow, rather than fade after you say “I do”? Lisa and Phylicia say, “Absolutely yes!” So what is the secret to a happy, thriving, loving marriage, where the fire of romance and close friendship do not fade? While The Flirtation Experiment includes the frisky side of marriage, it’s far more than a good romp. By degrees, each chapter takes you to a deeper place, covering themes every beautiful marriage has in common, such as covenant, healing, and hope. After reading The Flirtation Experiment, wives will be filled with hope and encouragement for how they can make a powerful, positive change in their marriages, become empowered to pursue their husbands romantically, understand the Bible invites women to be proactive in their marriages, be motivated to consistently love in creative ways, and forge closeness and intimacy in their marriages. “Intentional flirting keeps a positive lightness in the atmosphere and improves our overall communication,” says Jacobson. “My light flirtations bring us closer in meaningful ways and lead to connection on a deeper level. It helps us discover true romance waiting for us in everyday situations.” Perfect for the wife who wants romance, passion, and the closeness that only comes from a deep heart connection but isn’t sure where to start, The Flirtation Experiment is a candid, real-life record of two Christian women from different seasons of life who discovered they could make a significant impact on their marriage relationships, one small flirtatious experiment at a time. Readers can go deeper by using The Flirtation Experiment Workbook.

Pages : 404
Book Description
In 2014, deep in the jungles of the Cameron Highlands of Malaysia, graduates of a mission boarding school gathered at the school for the first time as adults. They were there to assess how their time at the school changed their lives as children and affected the adults they became. They had been sent to this distant school many from age five, by their parents, who in turn had been sent as missionaries in Asia by churches and missions to which they belonged.Some alumni regarded their years at primary boarding school as the best years of their lives but others had been traumatised. The separation from their families had been damaging and many found their adult relationships impacted, their faith in a God for whom they were sent away, difficult. Depression and PTSD were common.In gathering together as adults with a shared past, and telling their stories, the attendees realised they were not alone; they saw their lives mirrored in the lives of others. Their families had been ruptured in their formative years, but here, in this place, were friends whose lives had followed similar paths. This motley crowd, of mixed generations from the UK, USA, Canada, Australia, Europe, New Zealand, South Africa, Singapore and Korea, who had attended mission schools in China, Taiwan, Japan, Malaysia and Philippines recognised each other. They belonged to this tribe! There was here a path towards healing.These grown children have tales to tell. The book 'Sent' is a collection of their stories, in their own words.There have been books about cultural confusion (Third Culture Kids). There have been books about missionary lives. This is one of the few to tell about the adult lives that followed in children sent away to a mission boarding school from young ages, so the work of God could continue. It is a powerful book. These stories may make you cry, they may make you think deeply about your beliefs, and the parent you are or will be. You may see that the deep convictions of parents can shape their children's lives in unintended ways.
