    <![CDATA[&lt;div&gt;Gary Chapman first penned the best-selling The Five Love Languages more than ten years ago. The core message has hit home with over 3 million people as it focuses on humanity's deepest emotional need: the need to 'feel' loved. This need is felt by married and singles alike. Dr. Chapman now tackles the unique circumstances that singles face, and integrates how the same five love languages apply in their relationships.

    <![CDATA[<p>In his first major work since the publication of his phenomenal bestseller<em> The Five Love Languages,</em> Dr. Chapman delivers a powerful plan for whole-life happiness, with simple yet intensive exercises and wisdom for finding the life you have always wanted. The way in which our individual lives are improved, says Chapman, is through improving each relationship in your life: with your parents your children, your coworkers, and your spouse, and for all human interactions that form the foundations of our lives. With breakthrough strategies for developing new ways of accepting and responding to the gift of love,<em> Love as a Way of Life</em> nurtures the essential qualities of Kindness, Patience, Forgiveness, Courtesy, Humility, Generosity, and Honesty. Memorable real-life stories and inspiring advice make this an ideal book to share with others, fostering meaningful conversations about the incredible possibilities that emerge when love becomes a habit.<br/>In his previous work, Dr. Chapman brought to light the different ways people express love, but in<em> Love as a Way of Life</em> he reveals that every aspect of your life can be improved by placing love at the center of everything you do. As Rick Warren does in<em> The Purpose Driven Life</em>, Chapman illuminates the profound influence of spiritual insight and understanding on our daily lives.<br/><br/>Using real-life anecdotes, he examines the obstacles and misunderstandings that undermine relationships, and provides quizzes and exercises to help readers evaluate their own strengths and weaknesses. Rich in wisdom and inspiration,<em> Love as a Way of Life</em> is an invaluable guide to creating fulfilling and satisfying relationships and reaping the joys of living a love-driven life.</p>]]>

    <![CDATA[Meet the characters that live, work, dream, and love in the community of Deepwater Cove. Best-selling authors Gary Chapman and Catherine Palmer team up to show how four married couples, all in different stages in life, experience the joys and hardships of marriage as examined in Gary Chapman&#8217;s <em>The Four Seasons of Marriage.</em> In book one, Steve and Brenda face a common problem among middle-age couples: empty nest syndrome. Steve works too much, and with their two children out of the house, Brenda feels lonely and unfulfilled. In order to save their marriage, the two must learn to reconnect. Readers are also introduced to many charming characters, like Cody, the mentally challenged homeless man that shows up on Steve and Brenda&#8217;s porch; Pete, who owns the Rods &#8216;N&#8217; Ends tackle shop; and Patsy Pringle, who owns the Just As I Am beauty parlor, where much of the action takes place.<br/>The series is based on the marriage principles found in Gary Chapman&#8217;s non-fiction book <em>The Four Seasons of Marriage.</em> Similar in tone and light-hearted, quirky humor as Jan Karon&#8217;s Mitford series, Fannie Flagg&#8217;s books or <em>Steel Magnolias.</em> Each book has a study guide that talks about the four seasons of marriage and the healing strategies depicted in that volume&#8217;s story.]]>

    <![CDATA[In book two of this fiction series based on the best-selling non-fiction book <em>The Four Seasons of Marriage,</em> readers meet the blended family of Derek and Kim Finley. Kim has a set of twins--one boy and one girl--from her first marriage; Luke has recently been diagnosed with diabetes, and Lydia is acting out as a result of the attention now being showered on Luke. To complicate matters, Derek&#8217;s overbearing mother comes to live with them. With all that&#8217;s going on in their lives, Kim and Derek&#8217;s communication begins to break down and their marriage slowly moves into winter. Although the second book will focus on Kim and Derek, readers will also encounter all their favorite characters--Patsy Pringle, Pete Roberts, Steve and Brenda, Esther and Charlie--as well as some new ones, like the proprietor of the new sandwich shop that&#8217;s moved in next to Patsy&#8217;s beauty parlor.]]>

    <![CDATA[This book will focus on Brad and Ashley Hanes, young newlyweds who are facing their first season of winter. Opposite work schedules, differing views on finances and when to start a family, and Brad&#8217;s selfish and immature habits are forcing the young couple apart, causing them to question why they ever got married in the first place. It will take a whole lot of help--mostly from their nosy but well-meaning neighbors--for Ashley and Brad to pull their marriage out of the winter blues and into a hopeful spring. As usual, the residents of Deepwater Cove will pop in and out of the story to delight readers. They&#8217;ll encounter Cody and see his continued independence and growing friendship with Jennifer; Patsy and Pete&#8217;s escalating romance; and Charlie, a recent widower who is taking on the challenges and excitement of his golden years with zeal.]]>

    <![CDATA[The Covenant Marriage program encourages Christians to exercise the promises and expectations of God's covenant love in marriage. Practicing Covenant Marriage means couples must offer each other steadfast loyalty, forgiveness, empathy, and commitment to resolving conflict so as to encourage each other in spiritual growth.<br/> <p>In this new book, Dr. Chapman shows how communication and intimacy are two of the most important aspects in developing a successful Covenant Marriage. At the heart of it all are the principles that lasting answers to marital growth are found in the Bible, your relationship with God enhances your marriage relationship, communication is the primary vehicle by which two persons become one in the marriage relationship, and the idea of biblical oneness involves not only sex, but intellectual, spiritual, emotional, and social oneness.</p>]]>

    <![CDATA[Anger is a universal human experience.  For many of us, it is the single greatest challenge in every area of our lives.  We have been taught that anger itself is a sin and should be avoided at all costs.  However, anger is also understood to be 'nature's way' of preparing man to respond in times of danger.  How then do we go about bringing this volatile emotion under the Lordship of Jesus Christ?  Gary Chapman gives us the perfect tool to answer this and many other questions in The Other Side of Love. In this book, he takes a fresh look at the origin and purpose of anger.  Asserting that anger is rooted in the holy nature of God, he reverently explains that anger flows from God's holiness and love. Gary Chapman draws on his extensive counseling experience to instruct us how to positively process our anger.  This will help us to create and further cultivate healthy relationships.  Helpful study questions for group or personal use conclude each chapter. Don't let anger get the best of you. Victory begins with understanding.  Now is the time to make this critical investment in your walk with Christ.]]>

    <![CDATA[What do Mothers Against Drunk Driving, the abolition of slavery, and the civil rights movement have in common? They all began because of one universal human emotion: anger.  <p>  When motivated by injustice and guided by love, anger is a catalyst for good. But how can we make our anger a good thing? Dr. Gary Chapman, best-selling author of The Five Love Languages, brings us The Other Side of Love to teach us the answers in a very practical way.  <p>  The Other Side of Love is your resource for learning how to handle your anger, know if your anger is definitive or distorted, avoid imploding, recognize and process long-term anger, forgive, deal with anger toward your spouse, teach your children to deal with angry feelings, handle anger with God, handle anger with yourself, and respond to an angry person.  <p>  This book can revolutionize your relationships if you practice its ideas for handling life's second greatest force. </p></p></p>]]>

    <![CDATA[&lt;div&gt;We've all heard about dysfunctional families. Their struggles are the topic of TV shows, best-selling books, and popular magazines. Everyday something else that parents or children do is labeled 'dysfunctional.' Are the world's problems destined to become our own? How can we make sure we are part of the solution - not the problem? According to respected marriage counselor Gary Chapman, we can still make the dream of loving families come true. Just as bankers study authentic bills if they want to spot counterfeits, we can learn how to make our own families 'work' by studying successful ones. In Five Signs of a Loving Family, Dr. Chapman suggest that service, love, leadership, teaching and obedience are the hallmarks of lasting families. And he prescribes practical ways to help every family member nurture these traits. His words are powerful encouragement for parents and children alike. (Formerly titled Five Signs of a Functional Family.)&lt;/div&gt;]]>

    <![CDATA[&lt;div&gt;After the leftover wedding cake has been consumed and the thank-you notes written, the blissful couple often uncovers some jarring realities: a trail of dirty socks on the floor, conflicting opinions on how much money is too much for a bottle of shampoo and a general wonderment at the question, 'What does it mean to merge the worlds of two very different people?'In an updated version of Toward a Growing Marriage, beloved relationship expert and marriage counselor Gary Chapman offers his trademark practical wisdom on the many issues young married couples face. His basic message: to enjoy 'the marriage you've always wanted,' we have to be the person Jesus has always wanted us to be. He looks at such areas as meaningful communication, expectations about 'who does what' around the house, and the challenges of money management. 'Your Turn' questions inspire further interaction between wives and husbands. This book makes a superb sequel to The Five Love Languages as it takes the 'next step' in making unselfish relationships a reality.&lt;/div&gt;]]>

    <![CDATA[Dr. Gary Chapman has spent his life helping people communicate love more effectively and in turn build more satisfying and lasting relationships. His book The Five Love Languages is a regular on the New York Times Best Sellers list--even after being in print for fifteen years--and has made the term &quot;love language&quot; a part of everyday speech.     <p>Love Is a Verb takes his teaching to the next level. Rather than a typical marriage self-help book filled with lengthy explanations of principles and techniques, it is a compilation of true stories displaying love in action. These stories--written by everyday people--go straight to the hearts of readers, who often say that illustrations are the most effective parts of a book. Gary Chapman adds a &quot;Love Lesson&quot; to each story, showing readers how they can apply the same principles to their own relationships.</p>]]>

    <![CDATA[&lt;div&gt;Marital Bliss?'My wife is a nag!'  'My husband thinks I'm his slave!'We just don't love each other anymore.'Common phrases in an all too common world of marital failure.  We hear them everyday from our  co-workers, our friends, and even ourselves. The separation and divorce rate among Christian couples continues to rise while thousands of other Christian couples continue to live together in something far less than the 'abundant life' that Jesus promised.  Is your marriage turning out differently than you expected?  Are all of today's alarming statistics making you wary of ever getting married?  Well you are not alone. In Toward a Growing Marriage, Dr. Chapman offers the hope you've been looking for.  The author of the best-selling book The Five Love Languages, will help you get your marriage off to a good start or back on the right track with advice that is both biblical and practical.  Part of the problem, according to Dr. Chapman, is that too many times our churches have focused on the negative biblical directives when teaching about marriage.  We need to know more than to not marry a non-believer and to save sex for marriage.  We need to know how to succeed.  Toward a Growing Marriage is divided into two sections in order to help two different audiences succeed:  those who are in the process of finding a spouse who will be a 'fitting' or 'suitable' marriage partner those who have already said 'I do' and are trying to fulfill that commitmentMarital happiness is not automatic, but the practical application of Dr. Chapman's helpful information will put couples well on their way to successful and fulfilling marriages.&lt;/div&gt;]]>

Living in harmony, encouraging, and supporting each other help all of us reach our potential. On the other hand, troublesome in-law relationships can be a source of deep emotional pain and bitterness. When in-laws give in to resentment, anger, and withdrawal, they have joined the ranks of dysfunctional families. The seven principles shared in this little book will encourage those struggling with in-law relationships. If these principles are woven into the fabric of your daily life, you will be rewarded with a strengthened and mutually benefiting in-law relationship.]]>

The key to learning and choosing love is tapping into divine love. The craving for love is our deepest emotional need. We feel love and are drawn to others when they speak love in a way we understand. This same principle applies to the most important relationship—our relationship with God. Did you realize that the God of the universe speaks in your love language, and that your expressions of love for him are shaped by your love language? Learn how you can give and receive God’s love through the five love languages—words of affirmation, quality time, gifts, acts of service and physical touch. Dr. Chapman’s goal for readers is that they may be led to explore the possibility of speaking different love languages to God, and thus expand their own understanding of God and others.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;]]>

    <![CDATA[&lt;div&gt;The unfortunate reality is that Christians are separating and divorcing at the same rate as the unbelieving world. But does separation have to mean the end? You may not feel like reconciling. You may not see hope for a reunion. But the biblical ideal for a separated couple is reconciliation. So how do you do it? When doors slam and angry words fly, when things just aren't working out, and even when your spouse has abandoned your trust, there is hope. Hope for the Separated will show you through God's Word that your marriage can be restored. Recognizing that restoration will not happen for everyone, Dr. Chapman also gives insightful advice for those who experience the pain of divorce.&lt;/div&gt;]]>

    <![CDATA[Every couple has disagreements. All too often, though, when we engage in arguments, our goal is not to resolve the conflict at hand, but rather, to win the fight. Unfortunately, when you win an argument, your spouse is the loser, and nobody wants to be or live with a loser. When you resolve a conflict, your spouse becomes your friend. Good marriages are based on friendship, not on winning arguments. Now, Gary Chapman provides couples with a simple blueprint for achieving win-win solutions to everyday conflicts and disagreements. By learning how to listen empathetically, respecting each others ideas and feelings, and understanding why particular issues are so important to their spouse, couples can find solutions that result not only in resolving the conflict at hand, but also leave both partners feeling loved, listened to, and appreciated.]]>

    <![CDATA[ Unhappiness in marriage often has a simple root cause: we speak different love languages, believes Dr. Gary Chapman. While working as a marriage counselor for more than 30 years, he identified five love languages: Words of Affirmation, Quality Time, Receiving Gifts, Acts of Service, and Physical Touch. In a friendly, often humorous style, he unpacks each one. Some husbands or wives may crave focused attention; another needs regular praise. Gifts are highly important to one spouse, while another sees fixing a leaky faucet, ironing a shirt, or cooking a meal as filling their &quot;love tank.&quot; Some partners might find physical touch makes them feel valued: holding hands, giving back rubs, and sexual contact. Chapman illustrates each love language with real-life examples from his counseling practice.  <p> How do you discover your spouse's - and your own - love language? Chapman's short questionnaires are one of several ways to find out. Throughout the book, he also includes application questions that can be answered more extensively in the beautifully detailed companion leather journal (an exclusive <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://Amazon.com">Amazon.com</a> set). Each section of the journal corresponds with a chapter from the book, offering opportunities for deeper reflection on your marriage. <p> Although some readers may find choosing to love a spouse that they no longer even like -hoping the feelings of affection will follow later- a difficult concept to swallow, Chapman promises that the results will be worth the effort.  &quot;Love is a choice,&quot; says Chapman. &quot;And either partner can start the process today.&quot; --<em>Cindy Crosby</em>. This text refers to the <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://Amazon.com">Amazon.com</a> Exclusive Journal &amp; Paperback Book Set.</p></p>]]>

    <![CDATA[In the twenties, thirties, and forties, now-legendary American  songwriters and lyricists created a repertoire of popular songs, songs that have captured  the hearts of generations of music lovers. George Gershwin, Richard Rodgers, Cole  Porter, Jerome Kern, Harold Arlen, Hoagy Carmichael and many others, along with such  lyricists as Ira Gershwin, Lorenz Hart, and Dorothy Fields, produced extraordinary songs  of signal importance to the American musical heritage. In this book Allen Forte shares  his love of American popular song. He discusses in detail twenty-three songs, ranging  from Gershwin's &quot;Fascinating Rhythm&quot; (1924) to Irving Berlin's &quot;Steppin' Out with My  Baby&quot; (1947), guiding readers and listeners toward a deeper appreciation of this vital and  engaging music.  <p>Forte writes for the general reader, assuming no background other than a familiarity with  basic music notation. Each song is discussed individually and includes complete lyrics  and simple leadsheet notation. Forte discusses the songs' distinctive musical features and  their sophisticated, often touching and witty lyrics. Readers can follow the music while  they listen to the accompanying compact disc, which was specially recorded for this  volume by baritone Richard Lalli and pianist-arranger Gary Chapman, with Allen Forte,  pianist-arranger for &quot;Embraceable You&quot; and &quot;Come Rain or Come Shine&quot;.   <p>Learn about these favorite songs and more:  <p>&quot;How Long Has This Been Going On?&quot; &quot;What Is This Thing Called Love?&quot; &quot;Embraceable You&quot; &quot;Autumn in New York&quot; &quot;I've Got You Under My Skin&quot; &quot;The Nearness of You&quot; &quot;That Old Black Magic&quot; &quot;Come Rain or Come Shine</p></p></p>]]>
