God designed us with a longing to be loved. Why then are we so afraid of rejection? Why do we hide our hearts and settle for mediocre relationships rather than pursue the passionate loving and living for which we were created? Nancy Groom tackles these questions and more in Risking Intimacy. Melding personal experiences with biblical lessons, Groom invites you on your own journey--one of inner transformation. In whatever relationship you desire deeper closeness--with your husband or wife, friend or parent--this book shows you the way. Book jacket.
A Must Read Book for All Women Who Want to Dig Deeper
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
I really enjoyed this book. It uses stories from the Old Testament, followed by stories from the New Testament, which she then parallels with how we can grow in our relationships, especially marriage. She is a great story teller and makes the practical applications of the Bible come alive. It talks about how we need to risk intimacy with God first. Do we really trust him? Can we rest in him? An excellent book to read after Heart to Heart about Men, one of her earlier books. It's the kind of book that you have to read more than once to extract all the nuggets of truth. Enjoy!
