Have you ever wondered why we recycle the same problems in the church year after year? Broken relationships, unresolved conflicts, inability to speak the truth, pretending things are fine because we’re concerned about being nice. Week after week we hear sermons about loving better, but little changes in people’s lives. We spend a lot of money to learn, and become competent in, our careers, but few of us have learned the skills or gained the competency to love well. It’s been rightly said that 85 percent of Christians are stuck, stagnant in their spiritual lives. Most discipleship approaches do not include the necessary tools to mature us as followers of Jesus Christ who love God, ourselves, and others well. Pete and Geri Scazzero developed The Emotionally Healthy (EH) Relationships Course over a 21-year period to directly address core biblical principles to guide you and others into an experience of discipleship that will deeply change your life. In the EH Relationships Course, you will learn 8 practical relationship skills to develop mature, loving relationships with others. Take Your Community Temperature Reading Stop Mind Reading and Clarify Expectations Genogram Your Family Explore the Iceberg Listen Incarnationally Climb the Ladder of Integrity Fight Cleanly Develop a “Rule of Life” to Implement Emotionally Healthy Skills And since loving others and loving God cannot be separated, you will also grow in your personal, first-hand relationships with Jesus by incorporating stillness, silence, and Scripture as daily life rhythms. This workbook includes sessions introductions, group discussion questions, personal action steps, and between the sessions personal study. This powerful journey that will walk you through a door that will change forever the way you love God, others, and yourself. Designed for use with the Emotionally Healthy Relationships Video Study (9780310081937), sold separately. It is part of the Emotionally Healthy (EH) Relationships Course that also includes the Emotionally Healthy Relationships Day by Day devotional (9780310349594).

Most couples — because they watch so many of their peers divorce and are themselves the products of failed marriages — don't have many successful long-term-relationship role models. Parenting and communication issues are perennial, while some challenges, like increasingly 24-7 work lives and economic hardships, mark the current decade. Despite all this, psychotherapist and clinical social worker Marcia Naomi Berger asserts that most couples can make love last — they just need to learn how. Berger answers this need with a deceptively simple prescription: have an interruption-free thirty-minute (or even shorter) meeting each week and follow an agenda that includes the kind of appreciation and planning for fun that foster intimacy and pave the way for collaborative conflict resolution. Berger has refined these techniques while working with hundreds of couples — with results that are both practical and profound.

Intended for young readers interested in creating and maintaining physically and emotionally healthy relationships, this book answers common questions and offers practical guidance on navigating such everyday issues as conflict resolution and jealousy. Part of Bloomsbury's Q&A Health Guides series and authored by a clinical psychotherapist, this book equips readers with the knowledge and tools they need to pursue safe and meaningful romantic relationships. Although many teens and young adults are interested in dating, entering into the world of romantic relationships can spark a number of difficult questions. This book's 46 questions address concerns related to attractiveness, readiness for a relationship, building connection and trust, conflict, sexual health, setting boundaries, and breakups: - How do you know when you're ready to date? - Is conflict normal, and how do you deal with it? - What are the warning signs that a relationship is toxic or abusive? - How do you handle a breakup and the sometimes messy aftermath? .The text strikes a balance between theory and practice, offering clear explanations of foundational concepts in psychology and interpersonal communication, as well as useful suggestions that readers can implement in their own lives. Augmenting the main text, a collection of 5 case studies illustrate key concepts and issues through relatable stories and insightful recommendations. The "Common Misconceptions" section dispels 5 long-standing myths about relationships, directing readers to additional information in the text. The glossary defines terms that may be unfamiliar to readers, while a directory of resources curates a list of the most useful relationship-related books, websites, and other materials. Finally, readers can turn to the "Guide to Health Literacy" section for skills and strategies for finding, evaluating, and using credible sources of health information both on and off the Internet.
