Download or read book Will Our Love Last? written by Sam R. Hamburg and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2001-03-17 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Am I with the right person? Will our love last? Men and women in love are haunted by these questions. Love -- especially why it blossoms in relationships and why it later dies -- is a mystery to them. Will Our Love Last? A Couple's Road Map solves this mystery by giving readers a new understanding of love -- an understanding they can actually use to evaluate the soundness of their relationships and to answer confidently the crucial questions that mystified them before. Based on hundreds of cases in his twenty-four years as a marital therapist and twenty-nine years in his own happy marriage, Sam R. Hamburg, Ph.D., explains how compatibility is the key to lasting love. He shows how compatibility on three major dimensions -- the Practical Dimension, the Sexual Dimension, and the Wavelength Dimension -- is essential to the mutual understanding and affirmation that keep love alive, and he leads readers through a simple but systematic procedure for assessing their compatibility with a romantic partner in these crucial relationship areas. Dr. Hamburg introduces a new technique, The Hand Rotation Exercise, to help readers express their degree of compatibility and then convey that visually to their partner. In addition, he presents two new original techniques for working through relationship conflicts and coming to agreement on difficult issues: His Way/Her Way and The Long Conversation. Written in a clear, direct style that is free of jargon, Will Our Love Last? empowers readers to make important relationship decisions that are intellectually and emotionally informed. Will Our Love Last? will help couples trying to decide if they should take the next step to a more committed relationship. It will aid individuals embarking on a new relationship, or who are between relationships, to evaluate the rightness of a new or prospective partner. And it will assist people who are already in committed relationships to make an honest assessment of their prospects for happiness with their current partner. People have it in their power to make sure that they truly are with the right person. Will Our Love Last? shows the way.

Download or read book Before I Do written by Elizabeth F. Schwartz and published by New Press, The. This book was released on 2012-10-02 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive guide to marriage—perks, consequences, and everything in between—aimed at the LGBTQ+ community, from a leading gay rights lawyer. Not long ago, same-sex couples had to jump through endless hoops to make their relationships even close to legal. Happily, those days are over. But here’s the rub: many gay and lesbian couples, accustomed to living off-grid, are so thrilled to have the benefits of marriage that they jump into it without fully considering the consequences. In Before I Do, leading gay rights attorney Elizabeth F. Schwartz spells out the range of practical considerations any couple should address before tying the knot. She explains the rights married couples have—and those they do not. With cameos from some of the most prominent LGBTQ+ professionals, Schwartz explores all of the implications of marriage from name changes and getting a license to taxes, insurance, Social Security, and much more. Chapters on estate planning, pre- and post-nuptial agreements, and organizing finances make Before I Do a crucial handbook for anyone considering marriage—because, as Schwartz explains, just because you can get married does not mean you should. “During my thirty years of covering the gay beat for the Miami Herald, never did I imagine the need for a marriage guide for LGBT couples. Yet today nothing is more urgent. Before I Do guides all couples, gay and otherwise, about the responsibilities of marriage. Ignore it at your peril.” —Steve Rothaus, The Miami Herald

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If a wonderful and lasting marriage is what you want this guides for you! So You Want to Get Married? is a must read for anyone currently in a serious relationship or thinking about entering into one. Initially written for his children, the author writes in a fatherly and personal way about how to avoid major issues that often lead to painful divorces. He also examines serious topics that better help you understand your potential spouse and identify your level of commitment to him/her. Through an insightful and simple process using the fingers of the hand, the author helps you think through and evaluate five critical areas everyone must consider before making a lifetime commitment to an individual. His innovative approach makes it easy for anyone to learn and remember the issues you truly need to address. With your acquired knowledge you will be better prepared to make a decision as to whether he/she is the right one for you and whether you will have a wonderful and lasting marriage. This easy to remember set of principles brings clarity to the foggy world of love and marriage. The advice in this book is the most useful I have ever heard. I tell all my single friends about it. I definitely used it when I was dating, and now that Im happily married, I see things in my husband and I can say, I knew this was the man I was marrying! For me it is a great comfort. Tirsa S. Stewart So You Want to Get Married? is a concise and memorable checklist of five of the most important aspects to consider in a mate before making the big decision of marriage. It helped me sift through many different candidates as I searched for the man of my dreams. Now that I am living my fairy tale with him, I continue to share the five finger analysis with all my single friends in hopes that they will also be able to find a wonderful, loving companion to spend life and eternity with. Arisa S. Field The Five Fingers theory is what taught me what is essential to a good marriage. It does not teach that everyone needs to be perfect---to the contrary, it teaches that all people have flaws and that is normal. The question is whether you are willing to accept and live happily with the flaws of the one you are considering spending the rest of your life with. These are five things that no man/woman should look past when considering marriage. Azalea S. Klein It was hard growing up without ever having a boyfriend until I was 23. But the five finger rule is what kept me from settling! I now see that I avoided a lot of heart ache and bad choices by never getting serious with someone who didnt meet my basic five finger criteria. I am also grateful that while my husband is not perfect, I did get all five fingers... even the pinkie!. Stacey S. Carruth

Book excerpt: Christianity Today 2023 Book Award Finalist (Bible & Devotional) Sheltering Mercy helps us rediscover the rich treasures of the Psalms--through free-verse prayer renderings of their poems and hymns--as a guide to personal devotion and meditation. The church has always used the Psalms as part of its prayer life, and they have inspired countless other prayers. This book contains 75 prayers drawn from Psalms 1-75, providing lyrical sketches of what authors Ryan Whitaker Smith and Dan Wilt have seen, heard, and felt while sojourning in the Psalms. While each prayer corresponds to a particular psalm and touches on its themes and ideas, it is not a new translation of the Psalms or an attempt to modernize or contextualize their content or language. Rather, the prayers are responses to the Psalms written in harmony with Scripture. These prayers help us quiet our hearts before God and welcome us into a safe place amid the storms of life. This artful, poetic, and classic devotional book features compelling custom illustrations and beautiful hardcover binding, offering a fresh way to reflect on and pray the Psalms.
