    About this audiobook

    What would you give to radically improve, even transform, what matters most in your relationships? You can thrive in your career, acquire wealth, or build a great reputation. But if your relationships aren't thriving, nothing else matters.

    This 40-day journey will bring new depth and health to your marriage, your family, and your friendships. Saddleback Church teaching pastor Tom Holladay helps you explore and begin to practice six foundational principles including how to give your relationships the highest value, love as Jesus loves you, and communicate from the heart. You'll be equipped with insights and a practical path for fulfilling God’s intention for all your relationships--even the difficult ones.

    The Relationship Principles of Jesus walks you step by step through learning the foundational relationship truths taught by Jesus. Shaped after Rick Warren's monumental bestseller, The Purpose Driven Life, this book invites you to learn from the Master of relationships.

      This book was recommended by the assistant pastor at my church. I picked it up to learn more about humility but I ended up learning so much more about the role I play in all of my relationships. Relationships are a key part of our lives and this book discussed the principles in creating strong relations & why it is an important part of the Christian walk. I learned a lot about myself through this 40 day journey. Every relationship is worth my all every day. The author included scripture, questions to ponder & reviews at the end of each day. This book is not a book that I will read once and never pick up again. The lessons are for a daily walk & review every day to help us as we continue our journey to be better friends, mothers, daughters, co-workers & Christians.
    • 5/5
      If you are looking into a resource that motivates you to love or a biblical teaching about love then this audiobook is actually pretty good for that. It is composed of 6 relationship principles/themes and he (the author) does a pretty good job in explaining each. I still think that the 4th and 6th are in their core the same but that does not matter, neither the 40 days as I felt in some days, the need to listen to another chapter to push me to care.

      As a more technical comment, his voice does not impede or bother the clarity of the communication.
