In marriage, ignorance is not bliss. It's frustrating. Especially when the couple feels as if they've tried everything but nothing has changed. They have goodwill toward each other and want mutual satisfaction, but they feel stuck in a cycle of repeating the same arguments and enduring the same frustrations. They long for something to change for the better but feel in the dark about how. What these couples need are "lightbulb moments"—breakthrough realizations that will change their relationship forever. In this video-based Bible study and workbook, Dr. Emerson Eggerichs—New York Times bestselling author of Love & Respect—draws on his twenty-five years of experience to reveal twelve powerful truths that will lead couples to such moments. They will discover: Each person in the marriage is not wrong, just a different shade of right, which will offer a new lens for resolving recurring conflict that many couples overlook; Their response is their responsibility, which will call them to a new understanding for what frees and empowers them to influence their spouse; The goal is mutual understanding, which reframes and clarifies what couples really need when they are attempting to be heard; Motivating is better than manipulating, which offers powerful insights into what energizes the heart of their spouse and what silently shuts it down; and Follow the Holy Word rather than Hollywood, which provides a surprising realization about the "script" they follow and whether their expectations are shaped by real love or reel love. Perfect for every couple—from newlyweds to those decades in—this study offers biblically-based and practically-minded truths that will stick with couples and aid in their experience of making breakthroughs. This study guide includes: Individual access to streaming video sessions Video notes and a comprehensive structure for group discussion time Personal study for deeper reflection between sessions A guide to best practices for leading a group

A sikeres gyermeknevelés legfontosabb kulcsa A legújabb pszichológiai kutatások pontosan azt támasztják alá, amit a Biblia már ősidők óta tanít: a gyerekeknek szükségük van arra a szeretetre, ami Isten parancsa a szülők számára, a szülők pedig arra a tiszteletre vágynak, amely a Szentírás szerint jár nekik gyermekeik részéről. A Szeretet és tisztelet a családban című könyv gyakorlati tanácsokat nyújt arra vonatkozóan, hogyan szakíthatjuk meg az őrület körét a családi konfliktusokban és hogyan vehetjük fel azt az egészséges ritmust, amivel feltöltődhetünk és bejuthatunk az áldásba. E könyv célja, hogy a családtagok között egészséges kapcsolatok alakulhassanak ki a nevelés témájával foglalkozó bibliai alapelvek mentén. Dr. Eggerichs őszintén elmondja, milyen tapasztalatokra tettek szert feleségével három gyermekük nevelése során, valamint bölcs tanácsokkal látja el az olvasókat azzal kapcsolatban, hogyan lehetséges a különféle családi élethelyzetekben fellépni és azokat sikerrel kezelni. A könyv szemnyitogató módon tárja fel a gyermeknevelés bibliai alapelveit, amelyek úgy képesek működtetni a családot, ahogyan azt Isten eleve eltervezte.

Should you take the job? Quit the job? Begin a relationship? End a relationship? Move? Plant roots? How do we find God’s will for life's big decisions? What if you had total freedom? Emerson Eggerichs believes there is a clear answer to finding God’s will. The Bible itself reveals the clue--a secret hidden in plain sight. Before launching his Love & Respect marriage ministry with wife Sarah, Emerson was a senior pastor for nearly 20 years in East Lansing Michigan. Before that, Emerson and a friend ran a free counseling center called “The Open Door” in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. As Emerson navigated his career he found both he and the people he was counseling were wrestling with big decisions and knowing if that decision was really what God wanted. Immersing himself in God’s word for over 30 hours a week for 19 years, he discovered simple, clear truths that set him and many others free. There is a starting point to discovering God’s Will for your next decision and for your entire life. Begin here to read stories of people in the same situations you face today. You’ll be able to discover the freedom you’ve been searching for, and then, like Emerson, you’ll help others find that freedom too.

When will we learn? With every sunrise we are given plenty of new examples of people “Hitting Send” and soon regretting it. Social media means what it says: it is social! Our methods of communication today allow for something to potentially be broadcast to everyone from Pekin, Illinois to Peking, China. But it’s not only Twitter fanatics who can find themselves in trouble. Every single one of us is capable of falling prey to this growing plague. Every day we have the potential of both verbal and written blunders. It makes no difference if we are talking to a stranger over a meat counter, chatting on a cell phone with our mother, or sending an e-mail to a coworker; we can and do miscommunicate and people can and do get the wrong idea. When we don't pause long enough to think before speaking or writing, it commonly yields a misunderstanding and leads to a clash. We end up being the person who said, “You know that sphere of the brain that stops you from saying something that you shouldn't? Well, I don’t have one of those.” This book is about preventing that misunderstanding and allowing for understanding. Said another way, preempting people from getting the wrong idea and enabling them to get the right idea! We all need work in this area in far more ways than just glancing through a checklist. From external examples to internal turmoil, Before You Hit Send is about the four things we must think through before communicating. In all things we wish to say or write, we would be wise to ask ourselves, Is it true? Is it kind? Is it necessary? Is it clear? When we ask and answer these four questions honestly, we will be thinking wisely before we speak. But to explore this fully, we need to find out a whole lot more about ourselves and uncover why we consciously and subconsciously get into these communication disasters to begin with. You may be surprised what you discover about yourself. Shall we begin?

Psicólogos afirmam hoje o que a sabedoria bíblica já havia estabelecido há milênios: as crianças precisam do amor que Deus nos ordenou dar a elas (Tito 2.4), e os pais precisam receber delas o respeito que as Escrituras apontam ser o dever dos filhos (Êxodo 20.12). Amor e respeito na família oferece orientações práticas para romper o que os autores denominam o ciclo insano que realimenta a discórdia, afasta pais e filhos e torna o lar um ambiente tóxico. A simplicidade da argumentação do autor surpreende e tem cativado centenas de milhares de pessoas em vários países, ao permitir que pais e filhos conheçam as próprias limitações e encontrem um caminho comum para um relacionamento saudável e que ainda os torne amigos para sempre.

A Marriage Book with a Difference! A Revolutionary Message "I've been married 35 years and have not heard this taught." "This is the key that I have been missing." "You connected all the dots for me." "As a counselor, I have never been so excited about any material." "You're on to something huge here." A Simple Message A wife has one driving need--to feel loved. When that need is met, she is happy. A husband has one driving need--to feel respected. When that need is met, he is happy. When either of these needs isn't met, things get crazy. Love and Respect reveals why spouses react negatively to each other, and how they can deal with such conflict quickly, easily, and biblically. A Message That Works Based on over three decades of counseling, as well as scientific and biblical research, Dr. Emerson Eggerichs and his wife, Sarah, have already taken the Love and Respect message across America and are changing the way couples talk to, think about, and treat each other. What do you want for your marriage? Want some peace? Want to feel close? Want to feel valued? Want to experience marriage the way God intended? Then why not try some Love and Respect.

"Basándose en lo que la Biblia dice a los padres sobre la educación de los hijos, este libro se enfoca en lograr una sana dinámica familiar"--Page 4 of cover.

The secret to parenting success is out! Children need love, parents need respect. It's as simple and complex as that. Bestselling author Dr. Emerson Eggerichs has studied family dynamics for more than 30 years, earning a Ph.D. in Child and Family Ecology. As a senior pastor for nearly two decades, he builds on a foundation of strong biblical principles, walking the reader through an entirely new way to approach the family dynamic. When frustrated with an unresponsive child, a parent doesn’t declare, “You don’t love me.” Instead, the parent asserts, “You are being disrespectful right now.” A parent needs to feel respected, especially during conflicts. When upset a child does not whine, “You don’t respect me.” Instead, a child pouts, “You don’t love me.” A child needs to feel loved, especially during disputes. But here’s the rub: An unloved child or teen negatively reacts in a way that feels disrespectful to a parent. A disrespected parent negatively reacts in a way that feels unloving to the child. This dynamic gives birth to the FAMILY CRAZY CYCLE. This book teaches you to: See love and respect as basic family needs Stop the Family Crazy Cycle of conflict Parent in six biblical ways that energize your children Discipline defiance and overlook childishness Be the mature one since parenting is for adults only Become a loving parent in God's eyes, regardless of a child's response Based on what the Bible says about parenting, this book focuses on achieving healthy family dynamics. Dr. Eggerichs offers unprecedented transparency from his wife and three adult children, who share wisdom gained from the good, the bad, and the ugly of their family life. It's all here in this eye-opening exploration of the biblical principles on parenting that can help make families function as God intended.
