  Navigating Destructive Relationships by Brad Hambrick is one of the books in the G4 series. This series of books are gospel-centered resources written for small groups who meet together to work on life issues. In Navigating Destructive Relationships, Hambrick walks the reader through nine steps, or phases, for understanding their relationships, seeing the dynamics involved, being specific about areas in life that need the Lord's help and change, and how to build healthier and God-honoring relationships.  The book requires an honest heart and a willingness and a lot of work. The result will be living and relating in healthier and God-honoring ways. The book is available  here

  Dr. Kevin Hurt teaches us about how to help angry people.

  Many Christians have gone through dark nights of the soul. They have clung onto the Lord and life in times of deep despair and sorrow in this fallen world. If they have believed that Christians should never be like this, their grief and sorrow is compounded. Midnight Mercies, by Christine Chappell, gives voice to the experience of despair. While being written for depressed mothers, the book will be helpful for anybody in such a dark place. Chappell looks at common experiences despairing people have, examines people from Scripture who went through the same, and points to helpful Scriptural truth. Chappell ends describing how experiencing the gracious Lord Jesus brought life and hope and transformed her view of herself and her situation. I highly recommend this book.

  Ed Welch has written an excellent short book about how to care for others while they are grieving. In the book, he covers how to respond wisely with wisdom, with compassion, and with humility. In each section, he gives real life examples of how people have cared well and cared badly. Then he walks us through how to care well by asking the reader practical, reflective questions. This is an excellent short book, which I would highly recommend. The book can be purchased  here
