Marriage After Gods Own Heart
$18.00Add to cartIsn’t sexual — or emotional — intimacy enough? “No,” says Christian psychologist Dr. David Clarke. “Spiritual bonding is the process by which a couple cultivates the presence of God in their relationship,” he says, “and it’s the only ‘glue’ that sustains relationships long-term.” Working with hundreds of couples, Clarke observes that when we take specific steps to keep God at the center of our relationships, every area of intimacy is energized. This book teaches men and women in a committed relationship how to pray together, create “spiritual conversations,” read and study Scripture together, hold private worship sessions, and allow the Holy Spirit to guide them. It’s extremely practical counsel all couples need today.

Relational Trauma Of Incest
$39.00Add to cartThis volume presents a groundbreaking understanding of incest and an innovative, family-based approach to treatment.

Systematically combining individual and family sessions, the relational treatment model focuses on strengthening the child’s protective relationships, mobilizing the family to help resolve the child’s emotional and behavioral symptoms, and building the family’s resiliency. Filled with annotated case material that illuminates the challenging treatment choices and dilemmas facing the clinician, this book offers essential guidance for anyone working with families in which incest has occurred.

Raising Great Kids Workbook For Parents Of School Age Children (Workbook)
$14.99Add to cartA workbook for parents of school-age children (6-12) to accompany Raising Great Kids, which is a joint project of authors Henry Cloud, John Townsend and Mothers of Preschoolers International (MOPS). In Raising Great Kids, Henry Cloud and John Townsend approach parenting from the perspective of their unique theological and developmental system, and MOPS provides the hands-on application.
Most Christian approaches to character building focus on obedience to God and on moral functioning, but the authors will show how biblical character includes competent functioning in other areas such as relationship skills, responsibility and follow through, self-control, perseverance, delay of gratification, ability to lose and grieve, and the ability to forgive. Most resources for parents emphasize either structure and moral functioning over love, safety, and security or vice versa. Raising Great Kids provides a balance between these two parenting approaches.

Self Struggle And Change
$18.99Add to cartHow do I find greater wholeness in my life and in my family’s life?
“To appreciate the importance of the Bible and gain insight about ourselves from it, both Jews and Christians can use the process of midrash: The attempt to find contemporary meaning in the biblical text. The term midrash comes from the Hebrew root darash which means to seek, search, or demand (meaning from the biblical text). The starting point of our search for personal meaning is the Bible itself…. Each generation, each reader, can approach the text anew and draw meaning from it.” -from Self, Struggle & Change
The stress of late-20th-century living only brings new variations to timeless personal struggles. The people described by the biblical writers of Genesis were in situations and relationships very much like our own, and their stories still speak to us because they are about the same basic problems we deal with every day.
Learning from Adam and Eve, can we find the courage not only to face our other side, but to draw strength from it? Learning from Leah and Rachel, can we stop competing with our loved ones, and begin to accept them and find ourselves? Sarah, Hagar, Lot, Ishmael and Isaac, Rebekkah, Joseph and his brothers, Jacob and Esau…this vibrant cast of characters offers us new ways of understanding ourselves and our families and healing our lives.
A modern master of biblical interpretation brings us greater understanding of the ancient biblical text, and of the insights its characters give us about ourselves and our families today.
By bringing the people in Genesis to life-husbands and wives, fathers and sons, brothers and sisters-Self, Struggle & Change shows us how to find wholeness in our lives. -

2. Family Bonds And Christian Community: New Testament Sources
3. Family As Church: Three Historical Representations
4. “Domestic Church”: Families And The Common Good
5. Lessons From African American Families
6. A Christian Family VisionAdditional Info
Cahill’s important work brings fresh historical, theological, and ethical thought to the explosive area of family_deeply contested territory in today’s cultural and religious skirmishes.In the religious arena, evangelical-conservative vs. mainline-feminist lines echo larger social battles, contesting the authentic meaning of family within a Christian framework.
Though “family” has been dissected in the academic and cultural wars, Cahill asserts that the usual religious agenda of restoring the traditional nuclear family is actually misinformed and misguided. It bolsters oppressive social, economic, and racial mechanisms that are destroying families at the bottom, middle, and even top of the ladder.
Is there an authentically Christian notion of family? Cahill’s contribution shows in a striking way how very different were counter-cultural New Testament and early-church notions of family from our ideas of “family values;” how, throughout history, other influential Christian examples have emerged in the work of John Chrysostom, Martin Luther, and the Puritans; how, despite distortion by gender and class divisions, there develops a Christian vision of the altruistic family, animated by Christian discipleship to stand for compassion, generosity, and justice; how pertinent this vision of the “domestic church” is to public debate and public policy.

4. Culmination Of Courtship
5. Details Of CourtshipAdditional Info
The modern dating system is bankrupt. It does not train young people to form a relationship but rather to form a series of relationships, hardening themselves to all but the current one. Recreational dating encourages emotional attachments without convenantal fences and makes a joke of a father’s authority. The disrespect children have for their fathers in this area is an echo of the disrespect fathers have for their own office.Biblical courtship provides a wonderful freedom. It involves familial wisdom and godly protection. Grounded upon the involved authority of the father, courtship delights in its public connection to the lives of families. Sexual purity is a great inheritance for a marriage, and part of the fathers job is to guarantee to protect that heritage.
Biblical courtship is a humble affront to the sterility of modern relationships. And as a new generation rejoices in this ancient wisdom, the current waves of broken relationships will begin to recede.

IVP Print On Demand Title“Scant decades ago most Westerners agreed that…lifelong monogamy was ideal…mothers should stay home with the children…premarital sex was to be discouraged …heterosexuality was the unquestioned norm…popular culture should not corrupt children. Today not a single one of these expectations is uncontroversial.” So writes Rodney Clapp in assessing the status of the family in postmodern Western society. In response many evangelicals have been quick to defend the so-called traditional family, assuming that it exemplifies the biblical model. Clapp challenges that assumption, arguing that the “traditional” family is a reflection more of the nineteenth-century middle-class family than of any family one can find in Scripture. At the same time, he recognizes that many modern and postmodern options are not acceptable to Christians. Returning to the biblical story afresh, Clapp articulates a challenge to both sides of a critical debate.

Love Is : Meditations For Couples On 1 Corinthians 13
$14.99Add to cart“And now I will show you the most excellent way. . . .”
No words, no passage, no song, no poem in all of human history has crystallized the qualities of love into simple absolutes more elegantly than 1 Corinthians 13. The Love Chapter of the Bible paints a perfect picture of love. It reveals the ideal love for which everyone yearns. But the passage is not a fantasy of what might be nice. It is a serious essay on how love can be lived, describing qualities ordinary people can cultivate to build extraordinary relationships.Relationship experts Drs. Les and Leslie Parrott have compiled fifteen translations of 1 Corinthians 13 to inspire and teach anyone wanting to be a better lover. In the preface, the Parrotts describe love as the supreme good, a gift that lifts us outside of ourselves. They follow with meditations on very diverse translations and creative paraphrases of 1 Corinthians 13 – from the 20th Century New Testament translation published in 1900 to The Message, published in 1995, from J. B. Phillips (1947) to The Living Bible (1979), and from the Basic Bible (1950) to the New King James Version (1979).
This book makes a beautiful gift for engagements, weddings, Valentine’s Day, anniversaries, or any occasion when love is celebrated.
