The Relational Soul: Moving from False Self to Deep Connection by Richard Plass & James Cofield

At the core of our being is this truth—we are designed for and defined by our relationships,” former pastors Dr. Richard Plass and James Cofield write. Authored by a counselor and a spiritual director, The Relational Soul brings together concepts from psychology and spiritual formation. Each chapter includes introductory stories and practical “If this is true, what about you?” questions to help readers engage in relationships in more life-giving ways

Life Together: The Classic Exploration of Christian in Community by Dietrich Bonhoeffer
While Dietrich Bonhoeffer at the hands of the Gestapo in 1945, his writings continue his witness in the hearts of Christians around the world. Now, in Life Together, we have Pastor Bonheoffer’s experience of Christian community. This story of a unique fellowship in an underground seminary during the Nazi years reads like one of Paul’s letters. It gives practical advice on how life together in Christ can be sustained in families and groups. The role of personal prayer, worship in common, everyday work, and Christian service is treated in simple, almost biblical, words. Life Together is bread for all who are hungry for the real life of Christian fellowship.
