Building Successful Relationships
We all hunger for long lasting, life giving relationships. For many they are a struggle to establish or even maintain. We all desire a deep relationship with our spouse, parents, children, coworkers, friends, and others around us. In reality, the quality of life we live is directly related to the success or failure of these relationships.
In Building Successful Relationships, Michael Fletcher gives seven practical keys that will help build strong relationships throughout every area of life. He shows the central issue in every relationship is the hearts of those involved. When the seven principles are applied, you will begin to see your heart and the hearts of those around you grow closer to one another. This series will enable you to see an increased level of intimacy in your existing relationships, help you develop new relationships, or repair a damaged relationship from your past.

Relationships: A Mess Worth Making
Hope for messy, conflict-ridden relationships.
Your best friend is suddenly cool and distant. Your spouse can’t stop complaining about your bad habits. Your son refuses to talk to you. What are you supposed to do? Plans A, B, and C might be to shut down, lash out, or get out. But consider Plan D: Recognize that God has the last word on those messy, conflict-ridden relationships. He can use them to make you into a Christian who can give and receive love with God and others. Impossible? Idealistic? Not really.
In Relationships: A Mess Worth Making, Tim and Paul discuss the relational disappointments that we all suffer both in and out of the church. But they are also optimistic about the power of Christian beliefs to redeem and restore our relationships. Rather than presenting new or sophisticated techniques to make relationships flourish, the authors instead focus on the basic, Christian character qualities that can only be formed in the heart by the gospel.
