  Home Built From Love And Loss

  $17.99

  Grieving is part of every blended family.

  Sabrina and her new husband were both widowed when their families blended, so grieving was expected. They recognized the losses suffered in their families would take time to heal. What they have since learned is that every blended family experiences grieving whether you are widowed or divorced. And the process usually takes longer than expected.

  Sabrina vulnerably shares her personal experiences and struggles, revealing her mistakes and fears that she had early on in her new marriage and with her new family. In A Home Built from Love and Loss, you’ll learn to:

  *work through different parenting styles as a stepmother or stepfather;

  *parent kids in different ages and stages of development (hormones, personalities, and power dynamics);

  *compassionately address chaos and hurt feelings together and independently;

  *deal with feelings of guilt;

  *handle initial rejection from stepchildren;

  *glean biblical wisdom on how to do life together with grace;

  *connect better on an emotional level with your newly-formed family while keeping traditions that have grounded your family; and

  *honor the bereaved or divorced spouse.

  For anyone facing the challenges of blended families, A Home Built from Love and Loss offers practical advice and spiritual guidance to find hope in the midst of grief.

  Together Through The Storms

  $19.99

  Biblical encouragements that strengthen marriages in times of trial.

  This devotional helps married couples to navigate the storms of life together. Working through the book of Job, Sarah Walton (author of “Hope when it Hurts”) and her husband Jeff reflect on their own experiences in a marriage that has faced chronic illness, baggage from the past, a child with neurological challenges, and financial difficulties-and show how to cling to Christ and each other.

  This is not a “how to” guide on having the best marriage, but, rather, a walk alongside you and your spouse, sharing the realities of suffering and the effects it can have on a marriage. It is an encouragement to lift your eyes above your trials, off your spouse, and onto our all-sufficient Savior.

  Death Did Us Part

  $10.99

  Death Did Us Part presents a short story about the tumultuous marital relationship of a couple at the brink of divorce. The book, based on a true story, is a reflection on some of the pitfalls that plagued the marriage of Akawd and Muka and brought it to its deathbed. Interestingly, Akawd and Muka were both committed Christians and leaders in their church when they immigrated to Canada from Africa.

  By sharing this story, I provide an opportunity for readers to both understand better and safely observe the parallels that might exist between their own relationships and this couple’s. These patterns may then be named and safely externalized. The book also serves to celebrate marriages and the couples who keep their vows.

  4 Relationship Styles

  $18.99

  Whether we know it or not, relationship styles cause some people to naturally thrive in relationships and others to struggle. According to attachment theory, we tend to experience love in predictable ways–some of which are healthy and some of which are not–based on our style and that of our partner.

  The good news is, whatever relationship style you have naturally, you’re not stuck with it! Using the strategies found in this book, you can:

  – identify your relationship style (and your partner’s)
  – understand the strengths and challenges of that style
  – overcome feelings of rejection and failed relationships
  – recognize the patterns and behaviors that are affecting your relationships
  – develop better ways to express and receive love

  If you’ve been caught in a cycle of unsatisfying relationships, discover how attachment theory can help you take the guesswork out of understanding why people behave the way they do–especially in times of stress–so you can find and sustain a love that lasts.
