Dr Colm O'Connor, a clinical psychologist and couples therapist, has for over twenty years explored the emotional lives of couples and researched hundreds of cases of couples in distress. Looking beneath the surface of everyday complaints, The Courage to Love reveals those insights and shows how we seek solutions to life's most essential questions in close relationships. It answers common questions that we often ask such as: 'Why do we constantly argue about trivial things?' 'Why do we have to win an argument at all?' 'Why is it that we often forget what it is we end up fighting about?' 'How is it that love can deteriorate into abuse?' In answering these kinds of questions, Dr O'Connor shows what is ultimately at stake for people in winning an argument, starting a fight, proving a point, triumphing in divorce, or abusing a lover, and presents a range of solutions that are not about how to control relationships but how to inhabit them. Painting a dramatic portrait of love as a heroic response to human vulnerability, The Courage to Love shines new light on how relationship breakdown happens and provides a guide for getting back on track.

In these essays, which were originally delivered as sermons, Coffin argues that religion has fallen on hard times. He offers a cogent means of recovering a faith true to the spirit of the Bible and able to face up to the uncertainties of the present age. Brings essential biblical insights to bear on such issues as arms race, abortion, homosexuality, separation of church and state, communism, the Moral Majority and the true meaning of "Born again." In his vision, the churches can become centers of creative and courageous thinking, and not mere sanctuaries for frustrated men unable to meet the questions of moral and intellectual uncertainty.

"In a social climate that actually encourages divorce rather than reconciliation, Courage to Love... offers help and hope instead. Building on the experience of Retrouvaille, a successful church-sponsored ministry that is rapidly gaining notice and taking root across North America, it focuses on relationship building. It invites couples to reconciliation, to rebuilding trust, to learning skills necessary for healthy communication, and to growing spirituality through the lived reality of married life. Courage To Love... emphasizes ways to counter cultural trends that are detrimental to permanent marriage and a strong family life while covering such crucial topics as self-awareness, conflict resolution, forgiveness, the stages of a relationship, and intimacy. Each chapter concludes with reflection and sharing questions that encourage dialogue and discussion between spouses." -- from back cover.

The Courage to Be introduced issues of theology and culture to a general readership. The book examines ontic, moral, and spiritual anxieties across history and in modernity. The author defines courage as the self-affirmation of one's being in spite of a threat of nonbeing. He relates courage to anxiety, anxiety being the threat of non-being and the courage to be what we use to combat that threat. Tillich outlines three types of anxiety and thus three ways to display the courage to be. Tillich writes that the ultimate source of the courage to be is the "God above God," which transcends the theistic idea of God and is the content of absolute faith (defined as "the accepting of the acceptance without somebody or something that accepts").
