If you have ever struggled with a relationship you need to read this book. Although the book is written with Christians in mind it has immense value to everyone who has ever asked the question; what did I do? The principles are from the Bible and these principles have proven to be the hard tested and well worn trail that millions of people in the arena of addictions have found as their solution. These people have formulated a program that enables them to survive together in intensely close relationships. Their ability to get along not only strives from desperation to get better, but also strives from the human, God given, instinct for fellowship. Though this book has a targeted audience I am sure it has benefits for you no matter what your spiritual walk. Christians need to know that even though they have the Bible it does them no good if they don't know how to apply its principles in this vital area. This book is my effort to help by sharing my experiences of the last twenty years in this delicate but volatile area of the human spirit.

By culture, George B. Thompson Jr. means not just racial, ethnic, economic, or regional culture, but also a congregation's way of doing things--its history, customs, conventions, and procedures. In order to launch and maintain a successful ministry, pastors and other church leaders must come to grasp that unique culture of their parish. They must develop a culture capital within their congregations, meaning that they invest themselves deeply in how their church does its work and goes about its ministries. The author presses clergy to answer such questions as How well do I know what I'm getting into? and Have I been adopted yet? and even Is it time to move on? The book is ideal for pastors in solo settings, but pastors in multiple staff settings will also find the author's insights helpful.

This is a book that tries to help church members step back and see the bigger picture. An effective pastoral relationship is more like a couple who loves to dance together or a band that plays wonderful music. If we spend too much time on the details, without remembering that we want to dance and sing, our church will not have much to offer to Gospel ministry. This book, then, seeks to blaze a new trail for churches who want to thrive in authentic, faithful ministry with their pastor. In other words, it is a book for churches who want to get along with their pastor. It is a book for church deacons, elders, and other officers who recognize that a healthy, trusting, respectful relationship between pastor and congregation becomes the foundation for the church's vitality. It is a book designed to give you the tools you need to help your pastor become the best pastor that she or he can be with you. Statistics show that approximately thirteen hundred American pastors unwillingly leave their congregations each month. These sudden changes have negative long-term effects on both the pastor and the congregation. Thompson believes it is extremely important to find practical, easy-to-understand ways to train pastors and churches on how to approach disagreement much more constructively, and shows how to do so in this new book.

Can you have a strong personality and still be a godly wife? YES! Do you ever get the idea that being a godly wife means you need to be a mousy doormat? Be as unnoticeable as a doorknob? Or have a personality transplant? Fierce Women: The Power of a Soft Warrior smashes that idea. No matter whether you’re an extrovert or more introverted, Kimberly Wagner believes women are created to be a compelling force. You may not see yourself as beautifully fierce or even slightly strong, but what if God has placed a powerful fierceness within you, within every woman? Kim admits her fierceness became a source of conflict in her marriage, but the relationship dynamic totally changed when she discovered her fierce strengths could be used to encourage and inspire her husband. She invites you to come alongside as she takes an honest look at a destructive relationship dynamic and casts a vision for the transformation God can bring to troubled marriages. A True Woman Book; the goal of the True Woman publishing line is to encourage women to: Discover, embrace, and delight in God's divine design and mission for their lives Reflect the beauty and heart of Jesus Christ to their world Intentionally pass the baton of Truth on to the next generation Pray earnestly for an outpouring of God's Spirit in their families, churches, nation and world

"A Christian without a church is a Christian in trouble." Since a global pandemic abruptly closed places of worship, many Christians have skipped church life, even neglecting virtual services. But this was a trend even before COVID-19. Polarizing issues, including political and racial strife, convinced some people to pull away from the church and one another. Now it's time to recommit to gathering as brothers and sisters in Christ. In Rediscover Church, Collin Hansen and Jonathan Leeman discuss why church is essential for believers and God's mission. Through biblical references and personal stories, they show readers God's true intention for corporate gathering: to spiritually strengthen members as individuals and the body of Christ. In an age of church-shopping and livestreamed services, rediscover why the future of the church relies on believers gathering regularly as the family of God.

A Church Learns to Get Along is the story of a local church congregation that discovered practical, biblical principles that transformed their individual lives, their marriages and families-and their church. Corporately and individually they found God at work in the areas of speaking the truth in love, transparency, sharing one another's burdens, and more. The result brought them into a new freedom and openness with one another. To the surprise of this pastoral couple, they found their counseling load decrease, and even more amazing, gossip was virtually eliminated from their flock. Christ's prayer in John 17 emphasizes the unity He expects and desires in His Church. Nevertheless, the whole area of loving honest relationships proves to be a difficult calling. The tendency is to tolerate problems in each other's lives in order to avoid personal involvement and possible hurts. Yet the call to unity remains. Partners in life and in ministry, authors Pete and Bev Caruso demonstrate the Christ-life in their relationships with their three children, many grand- and great-grandchildren, and with those they have pastored and discipled into fruitfulness. In A Church Learns to Get Along, the Carusos bring Christ's teaching to life through firsthand accounts of Biblical principles being applied in everyday situations. Through true stories you will see how Christ can work in your life through acceptance, forgiveness, affirming, as well as by learning to lovingly confront one another. Pete and Bev pioneered and pastored two churches, established a Christian school, and helped start four other churches. They have ministered in over 40 countries, speaking in churches of many denominations, universities, prisons, Youth With A Mission, Christ for the Nations, FGBMFI, Aglow, Teen Challenge, and more. Pete and Bev believe God has equipped them to inspire and help this generation to reconcile the lost to God, and to bring restoration within families and groups of believers. Both Pete and Bev speak locally and internationally. Their messages come from their study of the Scriptures and their life experiences. Pete loves to present Biblical truths, then inspire folks to apply the Word to their own lives. Bev shares candidly from the heart of a true shepherdess, offering insight, comfort and encouragement. Pete is often sought out for mentoring by other ministers. One wrote, "Your life has been a model of integrity, compassion and love for others. I often find myself drawing from lessons I've learned from your example." Bev's writing includes several books plus articles in Discipleship Journal, The Christian Communicator, Ministries Today, and others. John Bills, former West Coast (USA) Director, Youth With A Mission, wrote, "You have shown faithfulness to God in all He has called you to do. I appreciate your passionate hearts to touch the lives of God's people who are hurting and the ministry of restoration and renewal to the weary." Eric Olson said, "Some people really stand out. You have made a permanent imprint on my mind and spirit because of the way you uniquely portray the Lord by the way you reflect Him in your actions and life," A student in Italy, Carina wrote, "It is rare to see couples who love one another like you. Your happiness, your peace, and love are examples to me,"
