The "It" Factor - Stubblefield, Bobette

. .

Résumé :
The It Factor - Keeping It Real is a living, comprehensive study of truth and the original design for healthy relationships. From the very first pages, readers are invited to take their place at a vacant peephole in the fence surrounding their lives and glimpse the bigger picture that so often goes unseen. In the beginning, we witness God's personal involvement in the creation and daily lives of Adam and Eve. We journey alongside them as they experience the wonder of an unbroken relationship-until that fateful moment when they give in to the hissing creature's deception. From our vantage point centuries later, we long to shout warnings, to plead with them not to turn away from truth. But they ignore the call, and Adam and Eve step into dysfunction and heartbreak, forever changing the course of human experience. Born into that same legacy, we, their descendants, inherit a world at war with us. Relationships fracture, finances fail, storms-both physical and spiritual-pummel us. We wrestle with self-worth, struggle to forgive, and sometimes question our love for God. This book offers an unflinching look at the raw realities most people rarely voice. With compassion and candor, Bobette Stubblefield-Martin shows how, like the first couple, we each face a choice: to become bitter or better. Truth, she reminds us, always has at least three perspectives. When we align our lives with it-God's perspective-we discover the freedom and authenticity we were created to enjoy. Chapter by chapter, Bobette masterfully peels back the layers of myth and tradition to reveal the deeper truths beneath life's grievances, heartaches, and disappointments. Dedicated to everyone who has ever struggled to love themselves, love others, or love God, The It Factor is a compassionate guide to healing and hope. Roll up your sleeves, take your seat at the peephole, and get ready to keep it real....
