Book Description

It is possible to find true love through dating. In True Love Dates, Debra Fileta encourages singles not to "kiss dating goodbye" but instead to experience a season of dating as a way to find real love. Through powerful, real-life stories and Fileta's personal journey, this book offers profound insights from the expertise of a professional counselor. Christians are looking for answers to finding true love. They are disillusioned with the church that has provided little practical application in the area of love and relationships. They're bombarded by Christian books that shun dating, idolize courting, fixate on spirituality, and in the end, offer little real relationship help. True Love Dates provides honest help for dating by providing a guide into vital relationship essentials. Debra is a professional Christian counselor who reaches millions with her popular blog, Truelovedates.com, and her book offers sound advice grounded in Christian spirituality. She delivers insight, direction, and counsel when it comes to entering the world of dating and learning to do it right the first time around. Drawing on the stories and struggles of hundreds of young men and women who have pursued the search for true love, Fileta helps readers bypass unnecessary pain while focusing on the things that really matter in the world of dating.

Book Description

“Why are so many of us at times completely baffled by a relationship? How can we think we know someone so well and admit in the end that we hardly knew that person at all? Why do many people who work diligently and strenuously to gain wholeness and balance still feel so frustrated about having a fulfilling relationship? Why have so many people given up on love?”—from the Prologue John Bradshaw’s bestselling books and compelling PBS series have touched and changed millions of lives. Now, in Creating Love, he offers us a new way to understand our most crucial relationships—with our romantic partners and spouses, with our parents and children, with friends and co-workers, with ourselves, and with God. Bradshaw’s compassionate approach shows that many of us have been literally “entranced” by past experiences of counterfeit love, so we unknowingly re-create patterns that can never fulfill us. Here he provides both the insights and the precise tools we need to keep those destructive patterns from repeating in the present. And then he shows how we can open ourselves to the soul-building work of real love—and create healthy, loving relationships where we can be fully ourselves in every part of our lives.

Book Description

"Dr. Margaret Smith has written the first book not simply about money and the Enneagram, but about money as an expression of consciousness. This is a powerful topic, deserving of wide attention and further development." - Don Richard Riso, co-author of bestselling book, The Wisdom of the Enneagram.This book is a pioneering guide to using the Enneagram to understand and heal our relationship to money. Money reflects who and where we are in our lives. Most of us begin our connection to money with feelings of fear and scarcity. But we are capable of much more fulfilling relationships to money than we might even realize. If we are willing to take an honest look at what drives our sense of scarcity and blocks us from wealth and prosperity, we can begin to take the journey from scarcity to abundance, fear to love, and surviving to thriving. Most money guides offer a one-size-fits-all solution to money. This book takes a more personal approach, drawing on your Enneagram personality traits to identify which money solution best suits you. You'll discover why you don't do what's best for you, pinpoint the money challenges that hold you back and block you from living to your highest potential.
