Matrimony Undenied
What makes a marriage work? No matter how much couples endure together for decades through thick, thin, and everything in between, many remain together in holy matrimony. Meanwhile, other unions wallow seemingly right from the start. Intimacy is just as emotional as it is sexual. It is a physical and mental intimacy which allows each spouse to let down their barriers. Forgiving each other is not only about taking a deep breath during minor transgressions, but also means to let go and move on with your lives. DO NOT try to change your spouse. As a team in marriage, you do not want to let others drive a wedge between you, including parents-NOT part of your team. You are not just lovers-you are best friends. There is more to marriage than adversity, commitment, crisis, and passion. Be sure to share the fun with each other. MATRIMONY UNDENIED!

The Pursuit of Marriage Oneness
Four Times Christian Book Award Winner: Illumination Book Awards, Inscriptions Christian Books Award, Ames Book Award, and Carolina Christian Writers Awards.In recent decades, the application of biblical principles that generate marital joy and happiness has diminished. Younger generations at large have aligned their marriages more with the precepts of the world than of Christ, leaving couples unfulfilled and unhappy. Steadily, the holistic nature of the art of married love has been lost as to being the fabric of Christian marriages.In The Pursuit of Marriage Oneness: the Key to Marital Success, Dr. Wilson unveils the key to marriage fulfillment: understanding and walking in marital Oneness. Organized into three parts, he first examines the field of knowledge on Oneness in marriage from a unique, faith-based perspective. Second, The Pursuit of Marriage Oneness offers an in-depth discourse on the synergy of the three facets of marital love from the Song of Songs, making practical applications from Scripture, clinical experience, and empirical research. And third, it discusses organizational and interactional aspects of covenant marriage with coherent and functional pathways to marital joy, happiness, and enduring success.As a Pastoral Counselor and Marriage and Family Life Coach, Dr. Wilson spent years compiling summary records that consistently showcased the needs of his clients and the successful interventions in their marriages. He felt the need to be a part of a movement for marital reformation by introducing an ancient yet fresh and exciting Christian perspective to marriage satisfaction: Oneness, the essential meaning of marriage. This book invites couples on a journey with a clear and refreshing pathway in pursuing marital joy and happiness as One.https: //readersfavorite.com/author-area/1518471/reviewsReaders' Favorite Book Reviews: The Pursuit of Marriage Oneness: The Key to Marital Success by Dr. Hobson Irving Wilson offers a wealth of advice as he pairs his points and topics with biblical sound examples and Bible verses.

Great for newlyweds as well as those who have been together for decades. I've read similar books, and something that stood out for me about Wilson's approach is his use of a wealth of Bible verses to back each of his points and to provide biblical examples of people who lived out these traits.I loved seeing how The Pursuit of Marriage Oneness was laid out, and seeing everything presented in such a straightforward and easy-to-follow way. This book was easy to read, and the advice is given by Dr. Hobson Irving Wilson in ways that are easy to apply, starting today and that will last a lifetime. These are things that will help both the marriage and qualities that will also help as a family in matters of parenting and presenting a unified approach to leading a household, as well in other relationships outside the home by living godly examples that lead to a more biblical centered life. This book would make a wonderful gift or addition to any home and shows great wisdom and insight into what makes a biblical marriage special.

The Other Side of Broken
At age twenty-six, Cheri Taylor found herself alone with a six-year-old child and nowhere to go except back home to her parents-broken. This is a situation that many have faced, sometimes of their own making and sometimes not. Either way, everyone in such a situation has the same chance of bringing something positive out of such frightening circumstances. Often when we are broken, our tendency is to crawl into a corner and lick our wounds. We run from the only source of true help that is available-our faithful, loving, merciful, forgiving God. Many people decide to numb the pain with harmful substances, bad behavior, or other destructive choices. Fortunately, that was not the case with Cheri. Cheri made the hard choice to work through her pain with the help of her godly family and friends as she sought to resume the pursuit of the calling she had felt for most of her life, a calling that she thought had been stripped away from her. She learned that God's promise to be "close to the brokenhearted; [and rescue] those whose spirits are crushed" (Ps. 34:18, NLV) was one that He would keep, just as He had kept all his other promises through the years. In the pages of this book, you will find the story of how a loving Father takes his broken child and makes something beautiful from the shattered pieces of her life. As you read, remember that what He has done for Cheri, He can-and will-do for you. - Henrietta Brown

Dear Little Me
My Darling, you are going to need an education. Don't let anybody tell you otherwise. Remember, misery loves company. Don't just start school, please finish it. Don't have sex with just anybody. Give yourself to someone who gives themselves to you. They will give you their ultimate promise to be married to you forever, and they will love you. That's one of the ways to give, and please know the difference from giving and baiting. Also, don't focus on yesterday. Yesterday will never repeat itself. Don't do stupid things. Don't form bad habits. Please don't think you'll get away with it. You are unique. You are not wired that way. You may get caught. Please think about your future before you take a step. One wrong turn can ruin it all. I have more advise for you in chapter one, and my Co-Authors have golden nuggets for you too. I love you.

Didn't Even Say Goodbye
When raising a child or a grandchild, spontaneity occasionally births a tradition. When growth and development of that child take that tradition from us, we often don't even notice that it is gone. We move on to the next spontaneous tradition the child can conjure up. This book is about the things a child seems to easily forget as they move on with life but a parent or grandparent holds in endearment. Things that are gone from our lives forever. Things that left our lives, but we didn't notice because they didn't even say goodbye. As I think back on those things, I don't want to become one of them. Life is but a vapor, and there will come a day when the child thinks back fondly about you. In my pain of missing the many little things we cherished, I wrote this book to help everyone navigate the tough task of saying goodbye in person, with life advice specific to that child. A sweet way to celebrate and memorialize saying your goodbyes before you are gone.
Black Love
While the black community struggles to overcome the confinement to poverty, health disparities, the lack of resources, lack of opportunities, and the lack of skill in interpersonal and environmental coping, there is a more important issue that puts our community at risk of these things and needs to be faced. What really happened to the structure of black families and how is this impacting our lives today? If you have been drawn to this workbook, there is something on the inside of you that knows there is a problem within our culture. A problem so big yet so small that we've overlooked it! Or maybe we've just given up hope that there would ever be a change!! Either way you are here reading this because YOU have a desire to be a part of a change that'll be the beginning of knocking down that invisible barrier that's holding our culture back from ever truly coming out of bondage. Restoring black love means restoring black wealth, but before we can restore black love we have to get to the root of what's keeping us incompatible with one another. As a licensed therapist, I have created this workbook, which provides worksheets that can be used alongside my course or individually, as a therapeutic self-help resource. The provided worksheets target key issues that could be keeping you in these cycles of broken relationships, that we see so often in our community. There are so many things that we experience that classify as trauma, and that mixed with the pressures we face on a daily basis, affect our mental health, which in turn affects our relationships. The child that is not embraced by the village will burn it down to feel its warmth, if you know what I mean. Hurt people hurt people! A key component to any relationship is the ability to be self aware enough to understand how your beliefs and unconscious traumas have shaped your life and how they may be shaping the way you see your significant others life. Understanding and working on self, while being present and aware of your partners needs, allows the relationship to naturally conform to a more lasting and fulfilling relationship. So, this workbook is going to help you navigate through inner work to pre-first date preparedness to long lasting relationships. There has been a statistically significant decline in the nuclear structure of the black family, and as your agent of change, I am determined to restore those strong family bonds we once knew. Let's start working on your lasting and fulfilling relationship!

Three Wise Men
From Beau Wise and Tom Sileo comes Three Wise Men, an incredible memoir of family, service and sacrifice by a Marine who lost both his brothers in combat--becoming the only "Sole Survivor" during the war in Afghanistan. Shortly after the 9/11 attacks, three brothers by blood became brothers in arms when each volunteered to defend their country. No military family has sacrificed more during the ensuing war, which has become the longest ever fought by America's armed forces. While serving in Afghanistan, US Navy SEAL veteran and CIA contractor Jeremy Wise was killed in an al Qaeda suicide bombing that devastated the US intelligence community. Less than three years later, US Army Green Beret sniper Ben Wise was fatally wounded after volunteering for a dangerous assignment during a firefight with the Taliban. Ben was posthumously awarded the Silver Star, while Jeremy received the Intelligence Star--one of the rarest awards bestowed by the U.S. government--and also a star on the CIA's Memorial Wall. United States Marine Corps combat veteran Beau Wise is the only known American service member to be pulled from the battlefield after losing two brothers in Afghanistan. Told in Beau's voice, Three Wise Men is an American family's historic true story of service and sacrifice.
Marriage Medicine Volume 5
Do you casually flip through the Bible, hoping a verse or passage will hit you when you need it? Or do you only read Scripture as you encounter it in your daily devotional? Are you satisfied with sporadic times with God, mostly meeting him on the run? Well as for me, I love the Bible and cling to verses that God gives me when I need them however sometimes it isn't enough. In the midst of trials, while trying to figure out what to read, I began to ask God to reveal his heart to me. I had no idea how life-giving hearing him speak a rhema word would become. God's word; logos and rhema, felt like his love letter to me and changed me forever. "I strongly believe that sitting with God, reading his word, asking him to share his thoughts and plans towards you, will change you," says Dr. Jessica Selvy-Davis.

The Quest
(Laminate Version) We are growing older. When America became a nation, only one in five people lived to age seventy. Now more than four out of five do. The average life expectancy in America is currently around eighty years-and increasing. This expansion begs the question, what are we to do with a second half of life that could last forty or more years? The additional time makes it inevitable that somewhere between age thirty-five and sixty, many of us will find ourselves at the cusp of a massive (and possibly catastrophic) transition.A decade ago, Randy Elrod created a live experience (a rite of passage) called The Quest for people age 35 and over. Since then, he has guided Quest experiences in New Mexico and Tennessee with participants from all walks of life. While there is nothing like attending The Quest in person, the hope is that this book will become a well-worn guide map for one's journey into second life.The path of The Quest is a unique journey, and no two ways are alike. Therefore each story is different, yet every story is the same. The many options can be disorienting. But fortunately, there are universal waypoints (intermediate points) that guide one to find the wisdom needed to make this journey of personal freedom.During the fifteen years the author researched this book, ten topics repeatedly appeared in the rituals, books, and resources and his conversations with others going through the transition to second life. Psychologist Carl Jung calls such recurrences synchronicity or "meaningful coincidences."The waypoints (chapters) in this book explore those recurring themes. Ten ways to discover one's call to adventure, to survive the trials, accept the rewards, and, yes, enjoy the second half of life.
To the Unloved
"Remember the prophecy God gave in Hosea: To those who were rejected and not my people, I will say to them 'You are Mine.' And to those who were Unloved I will say: 'You are My Darling.' And: In the place where they were told, 'You are Nobody, ' this is the very place where they will be renamed 'Children of the living God.'"- Romans 9:25-26 The Passion Translation, words capitalized for emphasisTo the Unloved is a book intended to be a warm hug for people who feel forgotten, never-good-enough, and not-quite-right. This is for the ladies whose trust has been betrayed and whose hearts have been mishandled. For those who were treated like a burden and feel like they are hard to love. I wrote this book to encourage God's daughters to deal with their half-healed wounds and begin to live a life that is untarnished by the past. This was written from the perspective of a homeless, abused child to offer hope to all other "no-bodies" and tell the reader: You are NOT unloved. You are NOT forgotten. You are "somebody" to God. Your Heavenly Papa calls you His Darling. You don't have to live in shame anymore. Your experiences can shape you for the better, not for the worse. And finally, because of Jesus, it is never too late to be who you might have been. To the Unloved is unique in both its tone and perspective. I am not trying to be an "ivory-tower teacher" here or someone who claims to know everything. This is a conversation from one friend to another, offering an empathic embrace through words. I was physically and sexually abused by my birth father for the first 17 years of my life. My mother knew, but because of some wounds of her own, she pretended not to notice. My father's abuse, and the total lack of protection offered to me at the time, completely hijacked my identity. Being so unloved covered me in shame like black, grimy scum invades a shower, and I wore it every day from the top of my head to the soles of my feet, felt it through and through, spoke from it, and walked in it. No matter how much I scrubbed and tried to get it off, it stayed stuck to me. Only the blood of Jesus can clean such a mess. Only the Lord in His infinite wisdom and unbelievable kindness can help a person sort through the damaging effects of abuse. Throughout every chapter of To the Unloved, in big ways and small ones, I delicately share details from my own experiences and every step I took with God as He healed my life. As I wrote this, I imagined my younger self, my mother, my older sister and other beautiful women I know who have struggled to escape their own "shower-grime shame." I consider it such an honor to share a truth so pure with ladies like them: Jesus loves you and He makes you good enough. You may have been treated like your name was Nothing and felt Unloved your whole life but these labels have never been who you truly are. In my own experience, when you come from a family where everyone is broken, someone must be the first to step out of it. To the Unloved reaches out to readers and reassures them that healing is possible. Everything changes when we tell God, "Here, take my broken life. I believe You can do something beautiful with it." Even if you began your life at the lowest level of society - neglected, abused, and forgotten - there is hope. Because of Jesus, you can win the struggle against shame and have a brand-new life. You can become the person you always hoped to be!
