People long to be loved and involved in healthy relationships, and for good reason: Medical research shows that those who love and feel loved by God, family, and a few peers are the happiest people in the world. Yet, despite the deluge of self-help books on spiritual awareness and self-esteem, many Christians struggle to find joy and solid relationships.In Unbreakable Bonds, Dr. Paul Meier and his daughter, psychologist Dr. Cheryl Meier, show how genuine happiness comes about when people develop healthy relationships, and they offer practical ways to connect with the self and with others. The Meiers explain how depression and addictive behaviors are often rooted in a disconnection with God, sharing examples from their own lives and their counseling ministries. They equip readers with twelve ways to develop lasting relationships, dividing the process into four steps: direction, detection, connection, and perfection.Through this insightful book, men and women longing for something more in their lives will gain the knowledge they need to make lasting change. It's also a valuable tool for counselors, pastors, and laypeople who want to minister more effectively to those who are hurting.
