Marriage from the Heart:
Eight Commitments of a Spiritually Fulfilling Life Together

by Lois Kellerman

Marriage From the Heart - Lois KellermanSimply the best book on committed relationships that I've found. Unlike too many books that focus on what's wrong with a relationship, Kellerman focuses on how to make a relationship strong by building on strengths.

Every couple -- whether married or not -- can use this book and methodology to build a more fulfilling relationship in which both can grow and change and become more themselves.

This book makes an excellent wedding or anniversary gift for a couple whose relationship is already good -- and who may want to "go deeper."

Klan-Destine Relationships : A Black Man's Odyssey in the Ku Klux Klan

Daryl D. Davis / Hardcover / Published 1997

Mr. Davis spoke in March 1998 at the Northern Virginia Ethical Society. Not discounting the need for legal and other social change in working to end racism, he documents the power of one-on-one relationships, looking for common ground, in helping others to also find the common humanity across racial lines.
