Connecting. . .disconnecting. . .reconnecting So goes the ageless pattern of relationships. We love/hate hurt/heal fight/forgive and we turn to TV talk shows therapists friends and books to help us understand our relationship problems. Lyn Brakeman a therapist herself looks to the stories of ancient Scripture for fundamental clues to healing our relationships. Using the Jewish interpretive storytelling technique known as midrash she brings to life a God who is in the middle of things. Her unusual take on the God Between Us the Great connector who reconnects us with the love and the faith to go on takes lively form in six relationship studies--of mother/daughter marriage partners man/woman mother/son two men and a group of women. Reflection questions at the end of each chapter add a rich dimension for individual or group use.
