Christian Editions
It is no secret that Christian couples are subject to the same stresses
faced by everyone. Statistics indicate that the divorce rate in many Christian
denominations roughly parallels and may exceed that of society in general. For
committed Christians, expectations are even higher as they “run the good
race” and strive to stay on “the straight and narrow.” Practical
teaching on marriage and relationships is as important in the Church as anywhere
else. Perhaps more so.
“Two are better than one, because they have a good
return for their work… a cord of three strands is not quickly broken.” Ecclesiastes
4:9-12 NIV
ACTIVE RELATIONSHIPS Christian Editions tell “the whole story” behind
the solid relational principles expertly set forth by founder Kelly Simpson. “Every
good and perfect gift is from… the Father of heavenly lights, who does
not change like shifting shadows.” (James 1) The Christian versions present
the principles in context of Scripture with cogent commentary. By doing so, these
key principles become even more insightful, meaningful and practical.
Christian Editions are available for the following programs:
- Active Christian Communication
- Active Christian Romance
- Active Christian Adults
- Active Christian Relationships
for Young Adults
- NEW! Active Christian Military Life and Resiliency Skills
- NEW! Active Christian Choices (For Pre-Married)
In addition to the cutting edge relationship skill taught in the ACTIVE RELATIONSHIPS
programs, each section in the new ACTIVE RELATIONSHIPS Christian Editions contain:
- INSPIRED NARRATIVE explaining the important ways in which each chapter relates
to practical Christian marriage.
- SCRIPTURAL REFERENCES that are denominationally non-specific, focusing
on the commonality of the Christian experience.
- DEVOTIONS featuring significant passages written to promote healthy relationship
patterns, and to free couples from destructive logical fallacies.
- OPTIONAL PRAYERS written in simple language that can be read silently, voiced
by couples privately, or recited in a group.
ACTIVE RELATIONSHIPS was founded by Kelly Simpson MA Psychology and Licensed
Marriage Therapist. Her brother Mike Simpson, life-long communicator, national
TV producer, author and Christian lay minister, graduate of the University of
Wisconsin spearheaded the Christian versions. Amanda Weatherby, PhD from Fuller
Theological Seminary, co-authored a number of the programs and is instrumental
in issues of theology and doctrine.
ACTIVE RELATIONSHIPS Christian Editions are designed to strengthen Christian
relationships, and help the Church address the stresses that challenge
all couples.
