When it comes to marriage, some things are just necessary. So say the authors of The Necessary Nine: How to Stay Happily Married for Life! Dan Seaborn and Peter Newhouse are proud to be regular guys turned professional marriage and family experts who have determined that the following nine actions will help couples stay married:
(1) Establish Cherishing Attitudes, (2) Pursue Financial Security, (3) Discover Sexual Satisfaction, (4) Spend Time Together, (5) Develop Genuine Friendship, (6) Value Physical Attraction, (7) Cultivate Emotional Oneness, (8) Guard Home Harmony, and (9) Build Spiritual Fusion.
Indeed, these are the “must-do’s” for anyone who has said “I do.” And although the list may look simple enough, Seaborn and Newhouse make sure readers understand the “how to” part every step of the way. Based on their popular marriage seminar of the same name, The Necessary Nine is written for men and women and is appropriate for couples in any season of marriage.

By default, LISA VELTHOUSEused to be a "party of one". Then she made it her own choice to date sparingly, purposely holding back the gift of her first kiss. She's looking forward to the romantic day when she can present her lips to Mr. Right and later break out the party supplies she has been keeping in her closet.

For Lisa Velthouse’s whole life, Christianity had been about getting things right. Obeying her parents. Not drinking. Not cursing. Not having premarital sex. Vowing to save her first kiss until she got engaged, even writing a book called . . . well, Saving My First Kiss. (This, it turns out, does not actually help a girl get a date.) Yet after two decades of trying to earn God’s okay, she found her faith was lonely, empty, and unsatisfying. So she turned to more discipline, of course: fasting! By giving up her favorite foods―sweets―Lisa hoped to somehow discover true sweetness and meaning in her relationship with God. Until, one night at a wedding, she denied herself the cake but failed in such a different, unexpected, and world-rocking way that it challenged everything she thought she knew about God and herself. Craving Grace is the true story of a faith dramatically changed: how in one woman’s life God used a bitter heart, a broken promise, and the sweetness of honey to reveal the stunning wonder that is grace.

Fashion journalist Lauren Scruggs knows how it feels to search for beauty. She grew up knowing of God's love, but never fully understood what that love meant, or how it extended to the deepest parts of her soul?until a horrible accident that resulted in the loss of both her left eye and hand. In her darkest hours, everything Lauren believed was tested. Yet it was there that God showed her where real beauty comes from: the unfailing love of the Creator. God's love is what truly makes us lovely. Using stories from Lauren's accident, recovery, and experiences in the fashion world, Your Beautiful Heart explores issues that teen girls face every day: body image, self-worth, peer pressure, and much more. Whether you read the book on your own or with a group of friends, Lauren's personal message of love, faith, and value will show you what it means to be a girl who radiates with true beauty.
