Jamie Hallman
I experienced numerous heartbreaks, disappointments, and frustrations in several of my own relationships (marriage, family, and friends). While some ended painfully, others eventually began to improve over time after counseling and applying the principles contained within both the Bible and this book. I learned that I had to start changing myself, and my mindset, to have truly fulfilling relationships. After years of trial and error and seeing immense growth and positive outcomes in my own life, I found myself offering up similar advice to those I encountered. Almost every conversation I had with others in which they were unhappy or in conflict kept coming back to this theme of unmet/unspoken expectations.
After speaking with others about this topic time and time again, I realized this was something that many people could benefit from. I even had a close friend suggest I write a book on the topic after hearing me offer up similar advice on more than one occasion. So, after both seeing a deep need and receiving what I felt to be confirmation from God, I determined to put it all down in writing. It’s been an incredibly cool experience to hear from readers about how the exercises in the book, birthed from my failures and hard lessons, have helped them enrich their relationships and offer more grace within them.
