$18.99A deeper probe into relationships starts with our heart’s desires
At last, a ‘relationship book’ that looks past what separates us to examine what connects us!
Dr. Mark and Debra Laaser go to the heart of the matter.

Using stories, Biblical references, and sound psychological principles, the Laasers explain each desire and show us how we seek it and what it feels like to have it truly fulfilled. You also will learn healthy ways to embody these desires in your relationships. You will be given the tools you need to start repairing and rebuilding relationships and developing new skills for creating emotional and spiritual intimacy.
