He gives a structure and framework to understand different levels of a relationship and how you are at different levels with different people, and the priority of people in your life. The highest levels, which take the most ...

This book is not about who is right and who is wrong; it's about connecting with and understanding your spouse. Until you connect or reconnect with your spouse, arguments are fruitless. The workbook in back is a priceless resource in communicating with your spouse. I had reservations about the workbook exercises in back, but took a step of faith and followed through with the questions and ...

The most revelatory book I have ever read outside of my Bible!
Thank you sir for writing this book. I am going to make a personal point to read it at least once a year to refresh myself on its contents. This book comes straight from the throne room of heaven and the heart of God. These may sound like strong words - but they are the truth. The way you explain concepts of 'relationship' and bring in contextual scripture passages to demonstrate your point is so ...

True Love: Well Worth the Wait (and the Work)
Cheryl's book couldn't have been timelier in my life. I read Commitment Chronicles over two flights from my home in Asheville, NC to Amherst, MA to visit a remarkable man who is not only my true love soul mate, but is also my adoring husband, devoted life partner and blissful lover. During these two long visits we engaged in a series of intensely inspiring, daringly open conversations which led ...

I got myself back!
WOW! Thank you so much for your obedience to Christ to write the book "Kiss me again". Today is my fortieth birthday and you have given me the greatest gift! I got myself back! I prayerfully anticipated your book and, God still did exceedingly and abundantly above all I asked or thought. I knew my marriage needed this, but I had no idea how the log jam of emotions was affecting my ...

A Must Read for Anyone Who Feels Called to Marriage at Some Point in Life
A fantastic read for anyone at any stage in life---single, dating, engaged, newly-weds, or seasoned married people! The book revolves around the idea that God wouldn't give us these wonderful gifts (sexuality) without telling us how to use them. I'm a college student reading this book for my (all women) Bible study, but I would absolutely recommend it for engaged or married couples or single men ...

this is my second-favorite Janet Woititz book! (read to find out my first!)
I love and recommend Janet's "Adult children of Alcoholics" to my counseling clients...but I must say, I love this book too! And I love the John Bradshaw's "Healing the shame that binds you" book.Healing the Shame that Binds You: Recovery Classics Edition (Recovery Classics) ...... and the "Getting Them Sober, you CAN help" book by Toby Rice Drews (this book is a real lifesaver--- my counseling ...

WOW! This book hits a home run!
Being a man, I rarely read this kind of book but my wife read it and I noticed a positive change in her so I read it. I'm glad I did because this book was very telling and hit me between the eyes and I needed it. It is always our intention to blame our loved ones for problems but when it comes down to it; you need to look at yourself!!!! This book was an amazing discovery for me and the list of ...

Looking for Help...THIS IS IT.
To be honest what first caught my attention to this book was the cover. In this case, the cover did match the content. As I began reading hush, I felt immediately part of the book. This is me...I AM NOT ALONE! Logically we all know we are not alone, sexual abuse is a huge problem, but sometimes our hearts don't feel that same security. I think this book should be read by everyone. As a ...

Peace between the sheets
This book was very well designed. With the relevant quotations, the quips and jokes, the sidenotes, diagrams, and intelligent prose, it is an enlightening and enjoyable read. It makes a great deal of sense, and offers a sidestream (non-mainstream) view of relationship which will be refreshing and revelatory to those who are bored and disatisfied with mainstream sex 'gurus.' Not only does ...

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 ...

The Future of Love

Brilliantly Insightful and Eye-opening Redefinition of Love
Daphne Rose Kingma's "The Future of Love" is-- at least in some ways-- among the five best books I have read this past decade, but at the same time I am now also finding it to be among the hardest books on which to write a worthy review. First, I must warn potential readers that this is NOT a self-help book "about love." In the broadest of terms, Kingma turns our perception of how we view ...
