Ryan and Selena Frederick were newlyweds when they landed in Switzerland to pursue Selena's dream of training horses. Neither of them knew at the time that Ryan was living out a death sentence brought on by a worsening genetic heart defect. Soon it became clear he needed major surgery that could either save his life--or result in his death on the operating table. The young couple prepared for the worst. When Ryan survived, they both realized that they still had a future together. But the near loss changed the way they saw all that would lie ahead. They would live and love fiercely, fighting for each other and for a Christ-centered marriage, every step of the way. Fierce Marriage is their story, but more than that, it is a call for married couples to put God first in their relationship, to measure everything they do and say to each other against what Christ did for them, and to see marriage not just as a relationship they should try to keep healthy but also as one worth fighting for in every situation. With the gospel as their foundation, Ryan and Selena offer hope and practical help for common struggles in marriage, including communication problems, sexual frustration, financial stress, family tension, screen-time disconnection, and unrealistic expectations.

While observing exotic animal trainers for her acclaimed book Kicked, Bitten, and Scratched, journalist Amy Sutherland had an epiphany: What if she used these training techniques with the human animals in her own life–namely her dear husband, Scott? In this lively and perceptive book, Sutherland tells how she took the trainers’ lessons home. The next time her forgetful husband stomped through the house in search of his mislaid car keys, she asked herself, “What would a dolphin trainer do?” The answer was: nothing. Trainers reward the behavior they want and, just as important, ignore the behavior they don’t. Rather than appease her mate’s rising temper by joining in the search, or fuel his temper by nagging him to keep better track of his things in the first place, Sutherland kept her mouth shut and her eyes on the dishes she was washing. In short order, Scott found his keys and regained his cool. “I felt like I should throw him a mackerel,” she writes. In time, as she put more training principles into action, she noticed that she became more optimistic and less judgmental, and their twelve-year marriage was better than ever. What started as a goofy experiment had such good results that Sutherland began using the training techniques with all the people in her life, including her mother, her friends, her students, even the clerk at the post office. In the end, the biggest lesson she learned is that the only animal you can truly change is yourself. Full of fun facts, fascinating insights, hilarious anecdotes, and practical tips, What Shamu Taught Me About Life, Love, and Marriage describes Sutherland’s Alice-in-Wonderland experience of stumbling into a world where cheetahs walk nicely on leashes and elephants paint with watercolors, and of leaving a new, improved Homo sapiens.

The thirty-eight years old, beautiful French dentist Mireille is looking for a housemaid. She finds the friendly twenty-seven years old Cameroonian woman Ayossi, who’s staying in France illegally. As Mireille’s living alone in a big house she inherited, she offers Ayossi to live there with her and work as her maid. A little later – seemingly by accident – Mireille meets her new maid’s alleged brother, Johnny Walker. The twenty-nine years old Cameroonian has been in France for a few months now, also without papers. He comes to the house sometimes to visit his alleged sister at work. During these visits, Mireille and Johnny get closer and closer and, in the end, she falls in love with him due to systematic, very subtle and well-planned manipulation. They get married and start living together. Everything seems fine and idyllic – everyone seems happy. But when, two years later, Mireille happily announces to the alleged siblings that she’s pregnant, even though a doctor told her ten years ago that she couldn’t bear children, Ayossi loses control and attacks Johnny in rage: “Pregnancy wasn’t planned, you traitor! You’ve fooled me, and I won’t tolerate that!” Only then does Mireille get to know the truth. Her whole life is turned upside-down. But when Johnny explains everything, apologises to her and confesses that he’s actually fallen in love with her, wants to be with her and is happy about the pregnancy, the situation changes once again: Mireille wants to keep her husband now. But Ayossi wants the same thing: she can’t accept that she’s supposed to lose the man she loves and the opportunity to get French papers after everything she’s been through. Johnny, now with French papers, has to choose between commitment, promise, deal and love – or put on another act.

What is the state of intimate romantic relationships and marriage in urban China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan? Since the 1980's, the character of intimate life in these urban settings has changed dramatically. While many speculate about the 21st century as Asia's century, this book turns to the more intimate territory of sexuality and marriage—and observes the unprecedented changes in the law and popular expectations for romantic bonds and the creation of new families. Wives, Husbands, and Lovers examines how sexual relationships and marriage are perceived and practiced under new developments within each urban location, including the establishment of no fault divorce laws, lower rates of childbearing within marriage, and the increased tolerance for non-marital and non-heterosexual intimate relationships. The authors also chronicle what happens when states remove themselves from direct involvement in some features of marriage but not others. Tracing how the marital "rules of the game" have changed substantially across the region, this book challenges long-standing assumptions that marriage is the universally preferred status for all men and women, that extramarital sexuality is incompatible with marriage, or that marriage necessarily unites a man and a woman. This book illustrates the wide range of potential futures for marriage, sexuality, and family across these societies.

The God who set aside power in order to live out love--fully expressing that love on Calvary's tree--is at the core of the Christian message to the world. Yet in the centuries since Christ's refusal to yield to Satan's temptation to establish his kingdom through economic, political, and religious power, the Church has struggled to make the same refusal. In Choose Love Not Power, scholar, activist, and modern-day prophet Tony Campolo explores the relationship between love and power, beginning with an examination of Jesus' life and working toward a "theology of power" for Christians today. He surveys the implications of choosing love over power when it comes to the global community's most pressing issues--environmental degradation, economic inequality and instability, and perpetual war. Dr. Campolo suggests that the choice between love and power begins close to home: Christ-followers who choose love over power in marriage and in parenting will likewise opt for love in their churches, communities, and governments. The growing number of believers seeking a more authentically Christlike way to be Christian in a diverse, pluralistic society will be challenged and encouraged by this unflinching look at Jesus's example of love.

The book is about the story of two women who, after they were killed, their souls won't leave the Mother Earth until their sentimental wishes were accomplished. The spirit of Mary Scarlet Scarborough, a loving mother who was accidentally killed in a robbery, witnessed the anguish of her only loving son, David, who promised to crush the head of her killer when they meet. She would stay and guide David until the day he would meet her killer. During the Second World War, David surrendered to the Imperial Japanese Army during the fall of Bataan and became a part of the death march, but he escaped and became a member of the guerilla unit that formed the Silent Killers. In their journey on top of the Sierra Madre Mountain Range, he would meet Rosemarie Borromeo, who would fall in love with him but would be killed by a Japanese soldier during a rescue operation to free her father, Commander Borromeo. The spirit of Rosemarie won't leave the Mother Earth until David finds the woman he would love and marry. Twice in the story, the spirit of Mary Scarlet would save the life of David. Rosemarie also saved the life of David a couple of times during and after the Second World War.. After their divine intentions were accomplished, the spirits of Mary Scarlet and Rosemarie left the Mother Earth happy, smiling, and contented with the love they could not share. Written by Mars M. Avelino, author of "The Path to Success" and "Success: The Road to Happiness or Downfall."

"Get this for your pregnant friends, or yourself" (People): a hilariously candid account of one woman's quest to bring her post-baby marriage back from the brink, with life-changing, real-world advice. Recommended by Nicole Cliffe in Slate Featured in People Picks A Red Tricycle Best Baby and Toddler Parenting Book of the Year One of Mother magazine's favorite parenting books of the Year How Not To Hate Your Husband After Kids tackles the last taboo subject of parenthood: the startling, white-hot fury that new (and not-so-new) mothers often have for their mates. After Jancee Dunn had her baby, she found that she was doing virtually all the household chores, even though she and her husband worked equal hours. She asked herself: How did I become the 'expert' at changing a diaper? Many expectant parents spend weeks researching the best crib or safest car seat, but spend little if any time thinking about the titanic impact the baby will have on their marriage - and the way their marriage will affect their child. Enter Dunn, her well-meaning but blithely unhelpful husband, their daughter, and her boisterous extended family, who show us the ways in which outmoded family patterns and traditions thwart the overworked, overloaded parents of today. On the brink of marital Armageddon, Dunn plunges into the latest relationship research, solicits the counsel of the country's most renowned couples' and sex therapists, canvasses fellow parents, and even consults an FBI hostage negotiator on how to effectively contain an "explosive situation." Instead of having the same fights over and over, Dunn and her husband must figure out a way to resolve their larger issues and fix their family while there is still time. As they discover, adding a demanding new person to your relationship means you have to reevaluate -- and rebuild -- your marriage. In an exhilarating twist, they work together to save the day, happily returning to the kind of peaceful life they previously thought was the sole province of couples without children. Part memoir, part self-help book with actionable and achievable advice, How Not To Hate Your Husband After Kids is an eye-opening look at how the man who got you into this position in this first place is the ally you didn't know you had.
