This week's Free Subscriber post:
An Empathetic Voice for Men
After last week's interview with "Samson," I asked Belah Rose, founder of Delight Your Marriage, to listen in and offer a response. What I appreciate so much about Belah's work (apart from the compelling testimonies of healed marriages) is the way she can challenge both men and women. She empathetically helps men be more sensitive to their wives and understand their wives' patterns of thinking, while also helping wives be more sensitive to their husbands. Plenty of podcasters take one side or the other; Belah is marked by her compassion and understanding for both. She gets what men like Samson have lived through, and also believes that even in those tough cases, men often need to take the first step (just as, in some cases, spiritually mature women will need to take the first step).

A Work of Genius: Why You Should Consider Reading Susan Howatch’s Starbridge Series
I love novels of all kinds, but for me, Susan Howatch's books tower above all others. After writing a series of best-selling novels that might be described as sweeping family dramas, in the 1980s she began the Starbridge series, six novels that capture the growth of the Anglican Church in Europe from the 1930s until the late seventies. Three main characters float in and out of each novel--one representing the conservative wing, one the mystical wing, and one the liberal wing. In this short video, I share my passion for this work and will hopefully persuade a few of you to give it a try. And if by some miracle Susan Howatch ever sees this, will you please, please, PLEASE come out of retirement and give us more?
