Book excerpt: In this age of limitless digital connections, we are somehow lonelier than ever. This isn't just bad news--it's dangerous news. Loneliness puts us at greater health risk than smoking or obesity, but we would sooner label ourselves overweight than admit we are lonely. It is a secret that is killing us. Contrary to all our efforts, the answer is not found in more connections, but deeper ones that mirror God himself as the originator of friendship and the original Friend. The Art of Friendship walks with you into a greater understanding of how God has equipped you to be a friend and to have meaningful friendships. With step-by-step guidance, you will begin to strategize how to fulfill your divine calling as a friend. And through God's Word, as you come to understand the depth and width and breadth of God as Friend, you will discover that the spiritual discipline of friendship is both life-changing and life-giving.

Book excerpt: Are you:-- seeking to renew a relationship? -- considering a new relationship? -- troubled with establishing a long-term relationship? -- divorced and trying to understand why your marriage failed? -- experiencing problems in love, romance, sex, intimacy or marriage? -- a therapist or counselor who would like to provide an accessible resource for your clients? -- Millions of books on relationships have been printed over the years. Why do we need another? We need The Art of Love: The Craft of Relationship for the same reasons that over four and a half million readers wanted Spencer Johnson's Who Moved My Cheese. Following Johnson's methods of teaching to a broad, modern audience, The Art of Love: The Craft of Relationship presents the profound principles that form a loving relationship in an easily accessible manner. Using a very simple approach, it will help people shift their attitudes and provide them with the skills to create loving, long-lasting partnerships. There are so many titles in print on change because it is an ongoing challenge for most of us. So are relationships. With more than six decades of experience working with couples, we knew we had vital information, lessons, and insights to share, but we insisted that the book be short, engaging, and easy to read. A helpful book does not have to be dense to be packed with wisdom, skills, and ideas that can open the door to a new era of fulfilling relationships. We have brought complex material and common sense into a format that is carefully constructed to achieve results by being communicative and consistent, enjoyable and hopeful. Unlike the textbook appearance of most self-help books that include psychological jargon, case examples and exercises, The Art of Love: The Craft of Relationship uses stories and dialogue to teach profound insights and valuable skills. It sticks to people talking in a way the reader can identify with and understand. It brings hope because the reader who is experiencing stress in a relationship can see that other people, like them, are, too. And, that learning a few basic skills can bring lasting change and renew love. The best news is that our book will be useful to many people because it will give them a new way to look at their relationship and the skills to handle problem after problem in a way that builds love and trust. Our mission is to appeal strongly to those who are considering a relationship, seeking to renew one, or are looking for a way to understand a partner and a process for dealing with problems in love, romance, sex, intimacy and living together.

Book excerpt: Named a Best Business Book of 2021 by Soundview Magazine Reclaim the power of genuine human connection Networking is often considered a necessary evil for all working professionals. With social media platforms like Linkedin, Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook at our disposal, reaching potential investors or employers is much easier. Yet, these connections often feel transactional, agenda-driven, and dehumanizing, leaving professionals feeling burnt out and stressed out. Instead, we should connect on a human level and build authentic relationships beyond securing a new job or a new investor for your next big idea. To build real and meaningful networking contacts, we need to go back to basics, remembering that technology is a tool and more than just a means to an end. We need to tap into our humanity and learn to be more intentional and authentic. As a “serial connector” and communications expert, Susan McPherson has a lifetime of experience building genuine connections in and out of work. Her methodology is broken down into three simple steps: Gather: Instead of waiting for the perfect networking opportunity to come to you, think outside the box and create your own opportunity. Host your own dinner party, join a local meet-up group, or volunteer at your neighborhood food pantry. Ask: Instead of leading with our own rehearsed elevator pitches asking for help, ask to help, opening the door to share resources, experience, contacts, and perspectives that add diversity to your own vision. Do: Turn new connections into meaningful relationships by taking these newly formed relationships deeper. Follow through on the promises you made and keep in touch. Woven together with helpful tips and useful advice on making the most out of every step, this book draws on McPherson’s own experience as a renowned “serial connector,” as well as the real life success stories of friends and clients. Filled with humor, humility, and wisdom, The Lost Art of Connecting is the handbook we all need to foster personal and professional relationships that blur the lines between work and play—and enrich our lives in every way.

Book excerpt: Arthur is a young, talented musician playing in the hottest club in Atlanta. His torrid past keeps him tethered to his music and nothing else; until he meets Naomi. Her artistry and authentic spirit loosens the chains wrapped around his heart. But their brewing romance comes at a price. Soul Reason is the rising star of Atlanta's live music scene. While this four-piece band's synergy on stage is undeniable, their individual personalities clash regularly once the microphones are turned off. Arthur's leadership and focus keeps them together on a weekly basis. When the club is shut down for renovations, the owner brings in an award-winning New York mural artist to paint new life into the venue. The band saw her as an obstacle, but she became an opportunity for love in disguise for the young bandleader. But Arthur's hesitation, mixed with Naomi's intrigue, only amplified the tension between he and his bandmates. Arthur's struggle with a past relationship proved to be almost too much for the new couple to endure. A surprise twist elevates their love affair to a matter of life or death. Will love truly conquer all the drama that surrounds them?

Book excerpt: Once upon a time, people knew their neighbors. They talked to them, had cook-outs with them, and went to church with them. In our time of unprecedented mobility and increasing isolationism, it's hard to make lasting connections with those who live right outside our front door. We have hundreds of "friends" through online social networking, but we often don't even know the full name of the person who lives right next door. This unique and inspiring book asks the question: What is the most loving thing I can do for the people who live on my street or in my apartment building? Through compelling true stories of lives impacted, the authors show readers how to create genuine friendships with the people who live in closest proximity to them. Discussion questions at the end of each chapter make this book perfect for small groups or individual study.

Book excerpt: Discover The Unspoken Language For Universal Unity How To Connect With People To Build And Maintain Meaningful Relationships! What is that one thing we all crave from other people? It's instinctive first felt from our parents. It's intrinsic in how it affects our moods and behaviors around others. It's intricate in how it's formed and how we experience it. We are all born wanting to connect! Since birth, we crave that connection with friends, families, and others. Without it we can't properly function and lose our way that cause personal problems with ourselves and relationship problems with the world around us, which lead to emotional as well as physical consequences affecting our health and well-being, becoming victim of loneliness, depression, and unfulfillment. Goes without saying, we get a stronger sense of happiness, self-worth, and purpose in our lives when we are connected with others through "rapport." Having connections also have additional amenities: strong alliance support to progress through life or in times of need, better professional opportunities and faster career advancements, and larger social circle to enjoy a more enriching life. Yet the challenge is getting that rapport with another person which doesn't always come naturally, if it even occurs. Rather than "you'll know you have rapport with somebody when you feel it" - how about triggering it at will so you can connect with anybody you meet? "Rapport" goes in full-depth with everything you need to know about rapport and how to create it: * An Extensive Close Look at the Secret and Science of Rapport throughout Different Conducted Studies and Scholarly Researches. * Proven Rapport Building Techniques and Behaviors Explained in Thorough Details and How to Do Them to Build Rapport. * Take Rapport to Relationship with Friends/Families, Romantic Partners/Spouses, and Co-workers/Bosses. * Practical Applications and Strategies to Generating and Maintaining Rapport at Work, Home, and within Social Life. * The Different Ways to Practice Building Rapport Everyday with Hands-on Activities and Simple Exercises. ...and much more, for the most complete comprehension on rapport. If you're lacking in connections or having problem connecting with people and establishing relationships, you can't afford not to be able to create rapport with others. Know how to use the art of rapport to improve your life.
