Parents/Grandparents Take Note!!
Parents and grandparents, take note. Christian George's book is not JUST for the younger generation. It is a wonderfully honest book that is full of insights about God and how he is working in the life of an incredible young man. I could not put it down, and I have shocked my grandchildren and nephews by giving them a book with "sex" in the title.This is a great gift for birthdays and ...

"Soulmates" delivers!
I was pleasantly surprised to find that "Soulmates" is not New Age pablum, but a delightful mixture of solid psychology and ... and what? Warm mysticism? Course in Miracles wisdom? Whatever the second part, the first part, solid psychology, is undeniable, and the author's wit, honesty, modesty and self-disclosure make the book a great read. Believe it or not, it may even help you find (or ...

Most inspiring book I've ever read on how to date yourself and date others
I consider myself someone who is fairly thoughtful and has already made an effort around being spiritually grounded, self-aware and having healthy relationships. This book, however, sets up a pretty profound framework around these things and asks deep questions. It helped me get to a new level of thought about my relationship with myself as well as my romantic relationships. I got an immense ...

Celebrate God's Gift of Sex; A Tremendous Christian Resource
As a professional in the field I whole heartedly recommend to you Dr. Doug Rosenau's landmark work "A Celebration of Sex". While there are a number of books written on the subject of sexuality from a Christian perspective, there are very few that address the subject with the level of insight, clinical accuracy, and Biblical soundness as Dr. Rosenau's work.

WOW!!! WHAT AN AMAZING BOOK!!!
I've probably spent hundreds of dollars on self-help books over the years looking for answers I couldn't seem to find. My husband and I have been together for over 18 years - many of which felt like banging our heads against the wall in frustration and three of which were spent separated. We were blessed to have survived the separation. I heard about this book on the radio (kkla) and knew it was ...

Empower yourself, your relationships, the world!
I have studied and used the concepts developed by the Stones and described in "Partnering" for several years. If I had been taught these skills in my youth I may not have married my ex-wife, if we had still married I think we would still be married, and if the divorce still occurred it would have been a far healthier process. These concepts and tools are making a fundamental shift in my ...
