Do you long for closeness but can't seem to get there? If you have a "good" relationship, wouldn't you like for it to be a "great" one? Are you feeling left out because no one has come along who finds you attracting enough to consider connection? Does your busyness crowd out time and interest in a deeper relationship? Has God just not looked down in compassion and sent along the "right" companion to you? What is it that seems to thwart what you were designed to experience? What style of connections do you have—distant or surface, clinging or anxious or confusing (sometimes clingy and other times fearful of closeness?)<br><br>In the human mind and heart is placed the desire to belong—to be connected deeply, closely with at least one other human being. This is not only a connection that includes sexual union, but one that unites heart with heart, and mind with mind. God placed that desire within us so that we would have that kind of association with Him.<br><br>You can transform your connections into secure and fulfilling ones! Knowledge is power, and this book will set you up to first understand and then do what's necessary to transform your relationships.
