I recently had the privilege of reviewing this new resource, Navigating Destructive Relationships. I found it helpful for an individual for several reasons. I received a copy of this free of charge from the publisher for the purpose of an honest review.
1- There are corresponding videos that are made to go along with each section.
2- There are short devotionals that will help someone think biblically and journal through their own issues with a destructive relationship.
3- It makes it easy to work through a difficult subject for those who struggle to open up to others about it. It is important to have resources available for this.
However, the better way to use this resource is with a small group. This is written for the purpose of being used in a group that Brad Hambrick calls G4 groups. They are support groups made for people struggling with specific issues of life. Go to bradhambrick.com to see all the group resources available.
This particular group would be for people in destructive relationships. There are questions at the end of each section that help aid group discussion over the material that was read throughout the week. It is helpful to be in a group for support and accountability.
This resource has many assessments to help you evaluate many things one could be dealing with in the situation of living with or loving someone who is potentially destructive. I found it helpful and will recommend it to people that I counsel. I also appreciate that it has an appendix that discusses what to do if you are lacking safety in your environment and what to do if you need to facilitate an intervention with a loved one.
Brad Hambrick writes like you are talking with a friend over coffee. He is filled with compassion and mercy. He makes helping a sufferer easy with helpful questions and wisdom. I highly recommend this resource.
You can get a copy from Amazon.com here.
