In toxischen Beziehungskonstellationen dominieren Drohungen, Abwertungen, Lügen und Manipulationen den Alltag. Die dahinterstehenden Mechanismen gleichen sich, ob es sich nun um die Beziehung zum den Partner, zu Freunden, den Eltern, Kolleg:innen oder Vorgesetzten handelt. Die Psychologinnen Anna Eckert und Lisa Irani zeigen, woran man dysfunktionale Beziehungen erkennt, wie man sich mithilfe psychologisch fundierter Tools gegen übergriffiges Verhalten wehrt, sich der Manipulation entzieht und aus der Verstrickung löst.

Cosa significa essere una buona amica? Non dire mai no agli inviti, accogliere le richieste d’aiuto, anche quando non hai il tempo per pensare a te stessa, ascoltare chi ha bisogno di sfogarsi, anche quando l’argomento ti ferisce. O almeno così crede Elizabeth Day che, a quasi quarant’anni, ha diversi libri di successo alle spalle, una carriera da giornalista ben avviata, un matrimonio, un divorzio. E, naturalmente, tonnellate di amici: una vera friendaholic. Poi arriva la pandemia e, con quella, giornate all’improvviso vuote di impegni e cariche di silenzi e assenze.

No one is a stranger to loneliness. Despite how social we are via text, chat, and notifications, we are far from being truly connected. We all want someone else to really see us and choose us for who we are. We want a place to finally fit in. But what if finding the right people or the right place is not the answer? From her community-building background, Sarah E. Westfall takes our longing to belong as an invitation to embrace and extend the deep love of God.

Sometimes it can seem as if friends are more work and pain than they're worth, with friendship challenges that we have to endure and struggle through. Life gets in the way of our well-intentioned efforts to connect. Conflicts and differences over serious issues divide us and make us think that we could never be close to a person ever again. How can we build real relationships that are life giving and pass the test of time? Bryan Loritts mines one of the Bible's least-known books for insights into how friendships can flourish even in the midst of sin and brokenness.

Vous n'osez pas aller vers les autres ? Vous pensez qu'être à l'aise en public est réservé à une infime partie de la population ou que discuter facilement avec n'importe qui relève de l'impossible ? Sachez que c'était aussi mon cas. Et croyez-moi, j'étais bien plus timide que vous. Pourtant, aujourd'hui, j'arrive à discuter avec des inconnus dans une rame de métro, à jouer sur scène devant plus de 2 000 personnes, et même à appeler une pizzeria sans stresser. Ce n'est pas une blague.

Men are told they must earn their manhood. Society has dozens of misguided suggestions and even in churches, men seek self-assurance through spiritual performance. But all these efforts fail because men are trying to win the approval of their peers, wives, fathers, or even God Himself—leaving them isolated, burnt out, and confused. Would you like to feel secure as a man without competing or pretending? In this book, Jeff Kemp shows you what it means to receive your identity as God's son and learn from Jesus' perfect example of being a man.
